In recent years I have learned the EASIEST way to turn. The researchers have accidentally made this robot to do the same thing.

The easiest way to turn is to push back just a bit, 2 inches, more and you turn too much, on the INSIDE ski, the inside of the arch of the turn that you wish to make.

It works so well and is sooo easy.

This robot does this when it bends the inside leg more then the outside leg to lean and turn. When it does that the inside ski gets pushed back just a little bit in relation to the outside ski and that is why the robot turns with soo much power and so little effort.

By the way, LEANING of the body DOES NOT MATTER, although leaning the ski DOES, its is pushing the ski back that makes it work.

Equilibrium of down hill momentum interrupted in an intelligent way sets the inside edge of the downhill ski to turning.

Although, if a skier or robot was airborne starting out with skies straight but then pushed back on the inside ski and tilted the skies would still turn with the inside ski closer to the radius albeit slowly.

Thus, the equilibrium of drag and relative positions of each ski is the MOST important factor.

Although, part of the MAGIC of this method is that pushing back the inside ski gives the skier’s legs greater flexibility and that is also WHY the robot moves this way, it is a mechanical compatibility between the necessity of the physics of turning and the mechanism of legs and hips of the skier.
