I noticed that (for the most part), the web cam follows the ski tip, which I interpret that his head is, again for the most part, always looking in the same direction as the ski is pointed. Or to say another way, the ski is always heading in the direction he is looking. Yes or No??

@tjm, @gregy, There is definitely a correlation between the head and ski tip on the offside turns (1/3/5), but no so much at the onside (2/4/6). Onside, KC keeps his head (and likely shoulders) open and pointed down course while the ski tip comes around. Offside, he starts to rotate the head earlier, just as his max reach occurs.

Interesting that he moves then locks his head, and presumably his eyes, BEFORE rounding the ball. Terry Winter does the same thing. I started doing this at Terry's recommendation and the consistency of my turns improved dramatically. Turning your head while leaned over is not good for balance.
