When these two actions are combined together, it creates symmetrical and round turns. After the basic ski technique has been learned, this tactic provides an opportunity to refine the turns as well as add rhythm to your skiing.
Timing the Pole Plant
In the second half of the turn, the basket of the pole is gradually brought forward in preparation for the next turn. As the pole comes forward, all the joints (ankles, knees and hips) are gradually moving inside the arc of the turn to create more edge angle.
