The principle of the carving ski is fairly simple. The ski has curved edges so that it is narrower underfoot than at the tip and tail. This means that when it is tipped onto its edge it will bend under the weight of the skier. The further it is tipped, the more it will bend. As the ski moves forward, it will tend to follow the curve of the edge meeting the snow and turn in a smooth arc. This arc is controlled by the shape of the ski, the amount it is tipped over and the amount of pressure on it.

The sidecut helps skiers make purely carved turns. It affects the physics of skiing in this regard by influencing the radius of purely carved turns, as will be discussed.A purely carved turn can be done with a ski that is flat on the snow or tilted at an angle to the snow. The figure below illustrates a ski that is tilted at an angle φ to the snow. When the ski is flat on the snow φ = 0.

(Note: In reality the ski edge is pressed into the snow, for a given angle φ. This is discussed in more detail in the physics of skiing section on how to prevent ski slippage).
When the ski is flat on the snow, a purely carved turn is executed when the radius of the turn RT equals the sidecut radius RSC. This allows the ski to go around the turn without any skidding, since the ski is always pointed in the same direction as its velocity v. The figure below illustrates a purely carved turn for a ski that is flat on the snow.
