Josh,

For the record, Harald has written extensively about the need to flex at the hip sockets, and, the need to keep hips more level in turns. Heck, he wrote the modern book on counterbalance and counteracting movements. Look at John Botti's avatar and the hip position is far different, John has written it has taken him years to build that movement into his skiing. Never confuse what PMTS teaches with how a PMTS advocate actually skis.

 As are not a student, you do make incorrect assumptions.  We recreational skiers all speak a far higher level of competence than we can demonstrate on the hill. Helluva tells me that each time we ski together.

its not just flexing its rotating or letting your femur rotate in your hip socket. Its also letting your femur separate on a lateral plane form the hip joint. away from the center. This shouldnt take years it should be learned on day one.....

This is impossible to learn with out getting your legs to lead you by foot steering. Once you have your legs separated, you can go ahead and start building counter and angulation aka CB/CA.
