 Introduction

Skiing deep snow—often called powder skiing is one of the most exhilarating experiences on the mountain. Floating through fresh, untouched snow feels like flying, but it also requires a different set of skills, equipment, and mindset compared to skiing groomed trails.

Why Deep Snow Skiing is Special

  • Smooth, soft ride: Powder cushions your turns and makes every descent feel weightless.

  • Quiet and peaceful: Deep snow absorbs sound, creating a serene back country atmosphere.

  • Fresh tracks: The joy of carving first lines into untouched snow is unmatched.

How to Ski Deep Snow Better

  1. Stay centered: Keep your weight balanced over your skis—not too far back.
  2. Keep your speed: Momentum is your friend in deep snow. Go a little faster to stay afloat.
  3. Use wider skis: Powder skis or fat skis (100mm+ underfoot) help keep you on top of the snow.
  4. Make rhythmical turns: Bounce through turns using your legs, not your upper body.
  5. Look ahead: Spot your line early and trust your technique.

Safety in Deep Snow

  • Always ski with a partner in the backcountry.
  • Learn avalanche safety basics.
  • Carry avalanche gear: beacon, probe, and shovel.
  • Hire a guide for unfamiliar terrain.

Conclusion

Skiing deep snow is pure freedom for those who seek it. With the right gear, technique, and a bit of confidence, powder days can become the highlight of your ski life. Whether you’re hitting cat skiing in British Columbia or storm chasing at your local hill, nothing beats the feeling of deep, fresh snow under your feet.
