In this brief instructional video, Tom Gellie shares a straightforward yet powerful tip for skiers: focus your gaze into the turn. He argues that looking ahead is a fundamental principle in many board and bike sports—mountain biking, motorcycling, surfing—and that skiing instruction often neglects it. Gellie explains that directing your eyes down the line helps the brain process terrain information, leading to higher edge angles, smoother turn linking, and better anticipation of upcoming terrain. He outlines simple visual‑training exercises designed to develop the habit of looking into turns, thereby improving control and performance on the slopes.
