I'm coming to appreciate the limits of video-that girl can ski--and I bet, over a long day in the trees and bumps of Stowe (or anywhere else) she'd put a beatdown on just about every poster here.  And her ski choice would help her do it.

The turns in the video provide a clear upper bound on her performance in advanced conditions.  The video speaks volumes.  It's not about how she compares to other skiers, but about what room for improvement she still has as a skier and whether she elects to pursue improvement.

She didn't ask for MA and this is a gear forum, not a technique forum.  I'll just say that if she were interested in going back to basics and reassembling her skiing carefully from the ground up that she could achieve greater outcomes (and better FIS points.)  But maybe she likes how she skis now, and that's fine too.
