Felly sgrifennodd Ace :
So in short, get, and keep, your weight in the right place and let the
ski do the work.


Knees into the hill as much as reasonably possible increases the angle of
the base to the piste, thus giving a better edge. You can do this even
at slower speed. If you're not carving (maybe the slope's too steep), then
really concentrate on getting the greatest angle you can.

Otherwise, yes as Ace says.

Rule: If your gloves aren't torn to shreds by the end of the holiday through
carrying your skis, then your edges probably weren't sharp enough.
