Angulation and the tall skiier

Okay, lets get technical. In order to properly edge your skis and achieve carved turns you have to transition from one set of edges to the other set, the sooner in the turn you do this the more dynamic your turns can be, and the more control you have. Translated this means the more edge you put into the snow the better those skis you are wearing will do their job.

How does this relate to the tall skier? Will it takes longer for a tall skier to do that transition from one edge to the other. I worked up a formula for it, but it boils down to how long it take to move your center of gravity around, us, as tall people, have a longer distance to travel than a shorter person, and then there is our weight, as tall people we can weight more and have more to move from point 'A' to point 'B' as well as having more distance from 'A' to 'B'.

Bottom line: as a tall skier we need to be training to be more agile, I have taken dance lessons, which helped my skiing and my skiing helped my dancing, a good win-win. I have been told that I walk differently since I started skiing. Beats me!
