Skyline posted this on Mogulskiing.net. It's cool & I hadn't seen it cross-posted here yet so figured I'd add it. Thanxxx Skyline!

Translation item: "Flats Barn" = "Flats Turn"

Clear progession from drills to turn.
Builds up, always the same motion.
3:00 - Mogul wedge. Poleplant followed by quick, full weight shift early in turn
4:23 - Javelin
6:43 - Mogul turn
7:15 - Quick turns

11:34 - Rollers, timing of turn, carving the backside, absorption

23:00 - Moguls
24:08 - Vision
24:30 - Poleplants in bumps. Don't reach with arm. Poles flick opposite each other
26:00 - Poleplant is after the crest, on the backside
26:10 - Pulling the feet on backside (left pane). Also hips high to clear the crest
27:30 - Carving the backside
28:50 - Hold poles & flick with fingertips, not full hand grip. Don't move arm

33:45 - Air

Throughout, lots of nice do's & don'ts in side by side panes
Some scattered dryland summer drills
Some recreational Telemark for fun
Lots of nice views of Whistler for stoke

Peace All

Fun to se how fast you can go but kinda boring after a while.
I like the natural ones , a little suspense to keep your line choice adrenalin going.

I'm thinking maybe Nick should get to work planning an Alpine Zone Japan Summit.
