Forces, friction, gravity, and momentum are always at work on snow. This session makes physics practical -- giving you a framework for understanding how forces shape technique and performance.
What You Will Gain
By the end of this session, you will be able to:
• Describe how key physics concepts apply to skiing and snowboarding
• Connect physics knowledge to technique, terrain selection, and student performance
• Use physics understanding to enhance explanations and demonstrations
