   So what happens when you return your extreme carving skis to their rightful owners, and revert to “normal" skis? You go straight back to the "old" rules.

   1997, Unattributed, “Give Way to Gracity”, in Financial Times, page XX

   The movements that produce carving are the same as those for all around solid skiing. Carving movements give you the versatility to ski on all snow, on all terrain. Now, refine and combine movements to produce the skiing you desire, whether it be extreme carving, bumps, powder, crud, all-mountain or “off-piste.”
