Carving styles

We are planning to experiment that in our Oppdal CarvingCamp :D

Unfortunately can not try that with J&P due distance between Finland and Switzerland, but perhaps one of you can try that in Aspen during SES ??

We have tested also holding camera mounted in handlebar and with wide angle lens and shooting back but it is not so easy as it sounds :D

Most slopes in Zinal were too steep for me to ride and film same time, i still need practice :p

Okay, what is the electro-ambient music in Stoked? (this one: http://www.okao.com/films/2003/wmv/stoked1.wmv)

Who is it, what album? I like, I like.

Sorry for getting a little off-topic, but if you like this type of electro-ambient music, you should check out the Delicious Lo-Fi Lounge radio station on www.live365.com The song "Breathe" by Telepopmusik is part of the rotation. While working at my desk, I listen to the station a lot. It's a good stress relief and very relaxing.

Extremecarving.com style = shoulders parallel to the board, like a surfer.

Hi all

That's true; but only for frontside.

The extremecarving.com style uses rotation in both turns. This means:

-shoulders are perpendicular to the board in backside

-shoulders are parallel to the board in FS

This is true for laid and non laid turns. You can see this in the stoked video: There are some non laid passages at the end of the video.

Best Regards

Olaf

Hello, Kent!

Could you put me on your list of future buyer for the DVD?

This is a great learning tool. I started with plates in January. So far, I'm still having fun being lousy. But I would like to increase my status as a carver. Altough, the Norm and other techniques related articles are GREAT, a video would be something that would help me. My local ski hill is fairy small and only have about 5 to 10 trencher on a good day. So advice are fairly limited.

The season is quickly coming to a end. But I'm already thinking of next year.

Thanks, Francois
