Daisy-Turn
Can be done on any skis but not snowboards
This turn is an exercise for people new to skiing. You should try it before you try a step turn.
  • While you are standing in one spot on flat ground
  • Pick up one ski and set it down at an angle to the other ski with the tips apart and the tails together
  • Bring the other one next to it.
  • Continue until you turn all the way around.

Your tracks will make a daisy pattern in the snow. Next try doing it keeping your tips close and moving your tails.
