Artemis United States129 Posts January 31 2011 23:21 GMT #42 Whats the difference between Carving, and skidded turns? I hear these terms being thrown around everywhere, but I dont really know what they mean.

AyeH United States534 Posts February 01 2011 01:08 GMT #44 carving is when you connect the turns and skidded turns is when you sort of stop and turn. and smith makes good googles and they go well with the smith helmets too.

Carving is when you aren't slipping on the snow to slow down but keeping a very clean line, staying on edge the entire time.

Artemis United States129 Posts February 04 2011 16:47 GMT #47 My board finally came!!! It looks amazing, even better then I thought!. Cant wait to take it out this weekend! What are some good angles for all mountain riding? I have it set at 9, -9 currently, and that feels about right, but im not sure until I take it out. + Show Spoiler + + Show Spoiler + + Show Spoiler +

Artemis United States129 Posts February 07 2011 01:59 GMT #48 Got home from the mountain a few hours ago and this board is amazing!!! Its like a hot knife in butter, it cuts through the snow with ease. I can actually feel what carving means for the first time. The bindings are super responsive, and dont seem to have any problems yet! Cant wait to take it out more, rest of this season is going to be sick!
