How do I swerve?

[snowmosexual]

I recently got a classic case of skiers thumb and won't be able to hold a pole until April. I've opted for no poles cause one pole is confusing. I feel the swerve slowly coming over me but I don't know how to fully embrace it.

hands always above the head

hit side hits and be creative... Harness your inner Magnus

 

[clindblomskier]

hand drags, lazy boys, and nose butters. Also shifties and purposely land spins 90 degrees short so you can shuffle the landing and enter a #loosebutlit swerve/butter

Nollie, on everything, off of everything and espically on flat ground on over a roller, maybe even... no it’s not possible.. maybe just maybe one day, a nollie backflip

 

[little1337]

Wear your goggles on your helmet, but backwards, no matter the conditions.

Front swap to forward

 

[Mawbin]

Butters on Butters, flail your arms like crazy, wear a hood under your helmet, goggles on your helmet backwards.

bonus points if you handdrag a yellowjacket

Let the swerve cover you like a blanket

 

[J_Mendez2001]

It’s all in the hips

 

[bennwithtwons]

when you barely pull off a trick and you're all back seat and arms are twisted around your body, just tell everyone that it is your personal style and has nothing to do with poor execution

 

[armchair_skier]

Lean back and hands above head. Basically tail press/manual and start carving.

 

[KilaTsunami]

Just copy the last swerve skier you saw.. i mean, thats all they're doing.

Put your skis on edge and then roll your body into the motion instead of actively skiing.

Once you go without polls you never go back! Two less things to hurt yourself with!
