Intermediates improve <strong>with Training Mode</strong>
Most intermediates start by using Free Ski mode, which tracks your skiing and gives you feedback on the chair without getting in your way. But at your level, our members improve the fastest with our more involved Training Modes, like Balance or Carving Training.
With Training Modes, work your way through levels of increasing difficulty. You'll hear a good or bad 'beep' sound if you pass or fail the metric score threshold, and hear personalized advice every time you pull up to the side of the run.
The modes most commonly recommended to intermediate members are Balance Training, Carving Training, and the Outside Ski Pressure Monitor.
Technique Teardown
Here's how a run summary might look for you on the Carv app.
At every technique level, there are key skills to master that will take your skiing to the next level. Two very important skill areas for you are Balance and Pressure.
As you develop your parallel turns, it's important to stay balanced as you make your way down the mountain.
A strong athletic stance is the basis of good skiing. Keep your knees slightly bent and feel pressure on the tongues of your ski boots.
It's also important to keep your feet shoulder-width apart, in line with your hips.
Applying more pressure on the outside ski is going to be the key to controlling your turns on any slope.
As you transition from one turn into the next, try to smoothly shift your weight onto the new outside ski.
Do you think you can lift your inside ski off the snow at any point? If not, then you still have your weight on it.

Tip no.1
Start of Turn Balance
Getting forwards at the start of the turn is essential to developing your parallel skiing, and will give you the confidence to direct your skis more easily.
Balance Training is a favourite of intermediate skiers on Carv. You'll work your way through levels of increasing difficulty with 'beeps' to keep you on track and tailored audio tips.
Example Balance tip:
"Through your turns, feel a gentle pressure between your shins and the tongue of your ski boots, and centre your weight over your toes, while keeping your knees slightly bent."
Tip no.2
Outside Ski Pressure
What separates advanced skiers from intermediates? One key differentiating skill is Outside Ski Pressure.
Try the Outside Ski Pressure Monitor to get an exact reading of your pressure on every single turn. You'll get a live readout as you ski, so you can hear what's working as you make changes.
Example Outside Ski Pressure tip:
"Keep your shoulders completely parallel with the slope by imagining you have a ski pole taped across your shoulders. Keep the ski pole parallel to the slope."
Tip no.3
