Am I wrong that I see an early move to the little toe and late to the big? Commitment to the new leg is the title. Perhaps you are retracting the inside leg just a tad too much which does initiate the turn on hi angles, but also hooks away from the late outside ski? If not, why the separation at 0:18? Soft snow maybe the case, but should allow an even bigger commitment to the new outside. Right?
Harald Harb:
The whole idea is to release the stance foot, that should make you bowlegged. That is my intent to get a fast, strong release. Flexing has to do with how much pressure you need to absorb. And for the turns in that video, that 's a lot of pressure for 62 year old legs.

When skis get farther apart than hip width in transition there may be a slight flattening on the uphill ski. That is not the point when the ski is pressured. Look at this video stop fame, the inside ski is always leading the tipping angle, before the falline it is always on edge before the big toe edge is pressured. I don't see big toe edge engagement, I see hips moving into the center of the arc. Using a big toe engagement would not create these kind of angles.
