Ski Tips for Kids

“No need to do everything at once. Spread your moves out over the whole turn. Turn your feet and legs little by little, move between TALL and SMALL the whole time. Tip on and off your edges bit by bit. Find a flow and soon it’ll feel smooth and graceful. When you feel good with the great big S turns try making snappy little s turns. You’ll probably find that small and medium turns (smedium) will control your speed the best, especially on steeper Blue runs.”⁠

Once your little skier can stand and take their own weight, a ski trainer like @SlopeRopes is a great next step. Slope Ropes sit at your child’s waist, putting them in the perfect position (nose over knees over toes). The length is perfect – long enough to allow you to make your own turns to slow down speed, but not too long that your little skier is out of your reach. With two ropes and two handles, you can effectively steer your little one in the right direction.⁠

“Start out with nice wide graceful giant S curves on easy terrain. Remember all the basics: keep your hands out front, look where you’re going, get TALL at the beginning and SMALL at the end, balance over your outside ski, and use big toe-little toe to get the edges to bite the right amount. And smile!”⁠

“It’s a great accomplishment when you can move beyond the Pizza wedge and start turning with French Fries. From here on out, you can use this advanced skill for pretty much all your skiing. If you have taken plenty of time to have fun with all the stuff up to this point, the parallel turn will come easily.”⁠
