Drill
Two-turn route rehearsal
HOW TO DO IT
Two-turn route rehearsal
correct late turn placement.
Preparation and setting
Required: linked skidded turns on comparable smooth pitch, a controlled bump traverse, and the ability to interrupt the sequence at a visible stopping place. Start at the edge of a small bump field with an easy return to groomed snow. Inspect hard troughs and traffic independently of the apparent size of the bumps.
Exercise task
- from a visible stopping place, point out the first shaping space, second shaping space and finish. Ride only that sequence. The observer records where the board began redirecting, not where the shoulders first moved.
Observe and diagnose
Diagnosis: if the first turn succeeds but the second starts late, the first exit may be wrong rather than the second turn technically weak.
Transfer and success check
use the same look-ahead planning in irregular terrain. Successful completion means both turns fit without an emergency tail throw.
Regression
one turn then groomed exit.
Progression
a third linked space without increasing speed.

editorial review notes
Terrain, traffic, visibility, fatigue and stopping outcome must be reassessed for the actual session. No certification-body approval is claimed; coaching review is pending.
