In this brief instructional clip, Tom Gellie highlights a subtle but essential movement that skiers often overlook when trying to emulate a Stivet turn like the one performed by Mikaela Shiffrin at Sölden. He points out a specific change in direction that occurs as the ski’s grip increases, which opens up the turn shape. Gellie demonstrates the movement, emphasizing that the angle of the skis creates this opening and that it can be hard to see on repeated turns.
