Max...I just went back and watched some of the clips...in some where he is skiing around the bumps (good point) you don't see it...but in others, the absorbtion and extension is subtle but there to my eye. The lightest movements enough to do the job...why apply any more than the terrain requires.  The steeper the terrain and where he addresses the bump, control the degree of absorbtion and extension....unfort unately not on any clips he's posted. But having skied some of those monsters with him...I can attest...it's there.

I think the reason for the soft subtle moves is that the clips target market was finding those clients wanting to learning to ski bumps... to show them how easy you can ski them without twisiting or hopping...or hurting. Hey, got my attention 4 years ago.

From there, John teaches to the advancement of the student. Hope that helps.
