Hi my name is Caroline Lalive, I am a 3 time Olympian and I am here in Steamboat

Today we're gonna work on carving. And what's carving? Carving is the ability to lay our

skis over on the edge and making nice beautiful clean turns.   One of the first

aspects of carving is to be able to keep our skis parallel. and one of the easiest

is to roll your inside knee in simultaneously with your outside leg.

So a common concern is that we make an A frame but what

we want to do is keep our skis nice and parallel.

After we keep our skis parallel an important part is to be able to drive our inside

knee in simultaneously with our outside leg creating a nice angle.

the flats are great place to work on your carving

you wont get intimidated by the speed and it's a perfect place to work on rolling

our knees and ankles and keeping our knees nice and parallel.

So hopefully you can keep those two tips in mind. Parallel skis and driving that

I look forward to seeing you on the slopes.
