Skiing Turning Radius Calculator

Calculate ski carving turn radius from ski geometry (sidecut radius, waist width) and edge angle, relating to turn shape and required hip angulation for carved versus skidded turns

Each component has a specific meaning:

• Ski geometry (sidecut radius — The ski geometry (sidecut radius recorded for the scenario being assessed.
• Waist width) — The waist width) recorded for the scenario being assessed.
• Edge angle — The edge angle recorded for the scenario being assessed.
• Relating — The relating recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the skiing turn radius result against the thresholds and context described above.

Enter the ski geometry (sidecut radius, waist width), edge angle, relating for the scenario you are assessing. Calculate ski carving turn radius from ski geometry (sidecut radius, waist width) and edge angle, relating to turn shape and required hip angulation for carved versus skidded turns. Use the skiing turn radius result to inform your calculation.
