What is a "parallel turn"?

A parallel turn is a skiing technique where the skier keeps both skis side by side, parallel to each other, while turning down the slope. To perform a parallel turn, the skier shifts their weight onto one ski while the other ski follows in the same direction. This technique allows for smoother and more controlled turns, making it easier to navigate down the slope. It is a key skill for intermediate skiers and helps with maintaining balance, speed, and stability while skiing.
