Skiing Beginner Course - Clock Turn



This Skiing Exercise will teach you how to change directions and turn in place while keeping the tips of Skis at the center. Kindly follow the steps below and use our animation as your guide.


STEP 1: Do this exercise on a gentle slope. To start off, stand with your Skis close to each other. Hold your Ski Poles and keep them on either side.

STEP 2: Slightly shift your weight on your right foot. Make A-steps by moving the Skis while keeping the tips in the same place. Move your left Ski to the left.

STEP 3: Move the right Ski close to the left one, just like in your original position. Keep on making these steps in clockwise direction until you finish a full turn.


You can also try turning in place while keeping the tails at the center. In this exercise, you will be making V-steps instead of A-steps.
