Balance your shoulders over your knees:
Bend all of your joints slightly as if prepared to move anywhere at any time just like a goal keeper would. Ideally this should be such that your shoulders are balanced atop your knees.
Sense your feet:
To maintain balance, your position should be such that you pressure should be felt on the inside bottom of your outside foot.
Rotate with your Legs:
This will prevent you from losing balance and will help you to create an angulation more efficiently, which brings us to tip#4.
Angulation versus Inclination:
It is thought that to take a turn, you should incline, or lean inside to deal with gravity. But often doing this isn’t enough and you must add angulation to this technique. Angulation basically means making angles in the body by moving your upper body and your shoulders to the outside of the turn and thus moving your hips and knees to the inside. This gives a ‘C’ shape to your body and gives you additional balance when taking turns.
Balance beside the outside ski:
This will give you a firm balance and also more pressure on the edge of the skis so that it bites at the snow. The inner leg should be bent and pressure should be put on the outside.
Walking Poles:
They help balance your body especially when taking shorter turns. To walk with the poles, only the wrists and forearms should be used while the hands should be kept at the front. As the pole basket go into the snow, it should swipe out in front of your hand.
Be Mobile:
To stay balanced and maintain pressure, always keep moving. A good exercise for mobility and balance is going through all the jumps present on the side of a run. Bend your joints as per the situation.
For a new turn, let go of the edges:
To start a new turn, let go of your edges by relaxing the leg on the downhill or tip your ankles and knees in the direction of the new turn. This will level out the skis onto the snow for a split second and thus making it easier for you to turn your legs.
Tighten core, loosen legs:
In order to balance your body, especially in chopped off snow, its best to keep a tight core. If your legs are mobile, you’ll be better able to adjust to the variations under your feet. Of course, some amount of pressure is necessary to keep your balance, but you need to be ready to move
as per the situation instead of staying firm and planted.
