118. Ski Dad TV Breaks Down The Essential Of Dry Land Training For Carving (feat Joe Dunn)

On this episode, I sit down with Joe Dunn—aka Ski Dad TV—to unpack his outside-the-box approach to skiing: building balance you can trust, prioritizing turn completion before initiation, and why chasing a “forward move” often sends skiers the wrong direction. We explore practical dryland drills (rollerblades, slacklines, trampolines) and simple ways busy parents can prep for the season without living in the gym...We talk about: ✅ The origin of Ski Dad TV and why clear, reality-based cues beat old dogma ✅ G-forces, swings, and the “Gravitron” analogy—how proper carving feels (not forces you push) ✅ Completion → transition → initiation: using momentum from the last turn to start the next ✅ The “no forward move” debate: hips-over-feet lateral move first; then meet the tip as it engages ✅ CARV’s forward-move metric explained (foot acceleration vs. literal hip-drive) ✅ Dryland progressions that translate: wall leans, slackline balance, trampoline edge-feel, rollerblade one-foot turns ✅ Baseline fitness for real-world skiers—why general strength + mobility carry most of the load.If you’ve ever felt confused by “get forward!” cues— or you want dryland drills that actually map to on-snow positions—Joe’s framework will help you carve cleaner, stay balanced, and ski yourself into shape without guessing.📌 Learn more about Joe → Ski Dad TV (YouTube) — including “7 Ways to Practice Carving on Dry Land”Join the Legaski Club (it’s free) and access resources to transform your skiing → https://legaskiclub.app.clientclub.net/communities/groups/legaski-club-freeFollow me on Instagram → https://www.instagram.com/the_ski_pt/Book a call with me → https://www.meettheskipt.com/🎧 Listen now at the link in bio or www.legaskipodcast.com/118
