Can you guys give me a good description of how to ski switch like I can do it and all but I'm doing a how to project for my computer class and its how to freeski and i cant give a good descrpitive way to ski switch other than croutch put one arm behind your back and look like the shit so any help would be awesome thanks
 
Well you don't really need to put another arm behind your back? there's not really a good way to describe it, just opposite footwork as going forward, but obviously different points of preasure, also could say look the way your turning, makes it easier for me.
 
ski with all your weight facing uphill, snowplow your tails together, and straitline. meanwhile, have both of your arms slightly bent and voilently waggling through the air.
 
Honestly, its more about stance when skiing switch. To accommodate your head and upper torso being turned, you pretty much always are a little staggered in your stance. For instance, when I ski switch, I look over my left shoulder. This twists my torso to the left and to counter, I bend my right knee, putting my left ski in the lead (that might not make sense, but just read through it and imagine yourself doing it). I dont put my arms behind my back when I ski switch, I kinda just like rest them in front of me, or on my knee when I'm turning. For some reason, poles feel really awkward when I'm riding switch....
 
well when turning its exctaly like reguler turning, you're outside ski or downhill ski is always behind and youre head is looking over whatever sholder you fell comfy looking over, and torso is slightly twisted and you're leaning slightly forward, and legs or leg is bent
