Turn to the Right

Turn to the Right

Mike Doyle
The first turn will be to your right. As you come down, raise and extend your right arm to about the 2 o’clock position.

Make this a extension in one smooth movement, and as you complete the extension let your head and your line of vision follow your hand.

Your head should move toward the tip of your right ski - just enough so that your head is more over the right ski, not both skis.
