Ok...I'm just expressing what I see....the majority of your weight is over your uphill ski with some weight on your downhill ski but the little snow coming from your downhill ski and your hip location tells me you are predominately weighted on the uphill edge...which I think is brillant.

Where the head is facing to me is not an external cue....it's skiing in the future...looking ahead for the next turn...again another principal I adhere to and think is admirable.

And I so agree with that the skis do not dictate the changing of ones ski technique. Good technique is the primary foundation for skiing any pair of skis.

The performance of the skis my change, where you ski them may change, how much of your ski tools you use to ski them may vary but good technique rules.  g
