Level 2
ALPINE ASSESSMENT ACTIVITIES
Individual activities: Manage each of the Technical Fundamentals as prescribed.
Description:
Begin with skis perpendicular to the fall line. Do a sideslip that moves diagonally across the fall line. Maintain a consistent rate of descent and a consistent corridor width. Repeat on the opposite side.
Terrain:
Green or gentle Blue terrain/Groomed snow
Ski Performance:
- Skis remain perpendicular to the fall line
- Ski remain parallel
- Both skis maintain similar edge angles relative to one another during the slip
Body Performance:
- The upper body is aimed towards the downhill ski tip
- Edge angles are controlled by tipping the legs and feet
- The ankles have matching forward angles
Fundamental Focus:
Control the relationship of the Center of Mass to the Base of Support to direct pressure along the length of the skis and/or Control edge angles through a combination of inclination and angulation
