Last winter we went to the Dolomites in Italy to ski. It was a wonderful vacation. My kids are learning to ski and enrolled in ski school. They learned a beginner skiing technique called “Pizza Pies & French Fries.” It is the same technique I learned when I took lessons <cough, cough, mumble, mumble>… years ago. Except back then, we called it the “Stem Christie.” You make a little wedge with your skis (the pizza), and then as you move through the turn, you move your inside ski parallel to your turning ski (the french fries), and voila, you have successfully turned! It is a three-step process for executing a simple turn. And it is foundational in learning more advanced skiing techniques.
