Enjoy it!

Yes yomama, you are right! The steps you describe are well explained! We do sometimes those little hops... Not at every turn, but from time to time. It's a question of playing with the ground. When there is a bump at the end of the turn, it's a pleasure to use it to jump and change edge in the air! ...

Yes their settings are different... but not for long because they are going to test SWOARD boards very soon at the Carving Session ;-) Their technique is also different: it's the opposite of the push-pull technique. That's why: - their legs are not extended in the middle of the turns - they jump by ...

Ces fixations Nidecker Carbon ressemblent énormément à mes anciennes fixations Fin's (qui ne sont plus produites). En extremecarving, je cassais un étrier tous les 4 jours!!! :-( Es-tu bien sûr que tes fixations tiendront le cou? As-tu des étriers de rechange? Moi j'en avais toujours deux sur moi......

Merci! Mais on est aussi Suisse! La marque Swoard est légalement suisse!
Et en 1940, les Allemands n'ont pas osé nous envahir, héhé

McFussel, of course the Swoard is also excellent for carving and aggressive carving! On crowded slopes with bumps, you can do "normal" carving with short and dynamic turns. The construction, the core and the ATC Matrix makes this board amazing. The style of the carver (cool or aggressive... "incline...

One sees the phenomena very well here: https://www.extremecarving.com/photos/02html/photos02/p08_02.jpg Clearly the turn is carved, and I can tell you it was beacause it's my legs :wink: . There is no skidding at all. It's impressive to see: - how well the nose works (especially shaped for EC) - the...

I Was passing Evolène and Grimentz, maybe I've even been closed to Zinal then. By car Grimentz is 12 minutes away from Zinal!! (10 when Jacques is driving :D ) Funny, that my extremebiking resort is your extremecarving-spot! Yes, very funny. These small resorts (except Verbier which is not small :w...

:D :silly: :lol2: 2nd: When did You decide to reveal Your spot? Recently. When we decided to organize an Extremecarving Session, we had to compare some Swiss/French resorts. We know Zinal very well: it has many advantages you will discover... We also know the boss (a young and open minded guy). Then...
