Mail for help.Help!!

Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Tail releasing Eureka moment

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
I was skiing in Alpe D'Huez last week on one of the many steep and bumpy blacks trying to ski the moguls with even a modicum of style and failing horribly initially! I have Salomon Crossmax V12 178 cm skis that are quite heavy and prefer going fast on flat surfaces than bumps. Initially I seemed to be ruled by the moguls somewhat until I had a think about things. I released that given the dimensions of my skis (117-69-101) the tails can be quite a dominating factor in locking the ski into carved long turns and trying to release them into the air when turning may make things easier. And so it proved- concentrating on lifting up the tails rather than the whole ski definitely helped me keep my weight forward and turn the skis more easily.
