Guest Posted January 23, 2015 Report Share Posted January 23, 2015 Second rider @ about 0:08 seconds - what the heck happens? looks like he's in the a heelside but then...falls over backwards? or something? very cool slope, a little jealous!

Futahaguro Posted January 23, 2015 Report Share Posted January 23, 2015 I'm not a hardcore carver so I am sure someone else has a better explanation but it looks like they start to transition for the next turn while they are still locked into the turn. They probably starting shifting the weight but didn't shift it enough and didn't transition the edge so the carve threw their weight back. My $.02:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Futahaguro: but it looks like they start to transition for the next turn while they are still locked into the turnSometimes Kim Jong Un makes some noise and the rider turns for to see what was happen behind or above him.Advertising consultants of North Korea are actualy in Europe on tour for to promote holidays/travel in/to North Korea. After Vietnam and Kambodscha are visited allready and no more the place for to go, many European tourists take high interests about traveling to North Korea. I mean it's one of the last and today rare country, which isn't infected by Western type of influence. One thing is amazing on that "carving flow" video. While our slopes sometimes are bounded on either side by barbed wire, they use high walls of red plastic on each side. That slope on "carving flow" video must be very danger to ride on skis and snowboards, so they had to install that ugly red plastic walls. We can be happy on the Alps to not have such danger slopes. Protection by rocks on either side of slope help us a lot to feel safe. Even if there is a daily high frequency of skiers and snowboarders. It give sense to carve ec-turns with a slolom raceboard on such protected-by-rocks slopes. The good/pro ones do it fakie! - Just my 2 cents.
