Example Edging Similarity: 91. The opening linked turns build edge together across both sides; later right turns are the review moments.

Replay views

Head-tracked and skeleton-overlay videos make fast ski footage easier to inspect.

Technique metrics

Hands forward, Stance width, Turn rhythm, G-force, Angulation, and Edging Similarity reveal patterns in your skiing.

What Poser does

Ski technique feedback from the video you already have

Poser analyzes short ski clips to make your movement easier to understand. Instead of watching a shaky phone video over and over, you get stabilized replay views, skeleton overlays, turn timing, and technique metrics that highlight patterns in your skiing.

You do not need boot sensors, special hardware, or a coached session. Upload a clear clip from your phone, choose the skier to track if needed, and Poser creates analysis outputs you can review frame by frame.

01

Upload a short clip

Best results come from 10–20 seconds with several linked turns.

02

Poser tracks the skier

The system finds the primary skier and follows the skier through the video, even when the camera moves or other skiers are in the frame.

03

Review the analysis

Watch replay views, compare turns, and explore the four Ski Elements.

Live now One of your technique metrics

Inside and outside working together: Edging Similarity

Edging Similarity measures how well your inside ski and outside ski build edge together as a turn develops. A higher score means both skis are tipping and building edge in a more coordinated pattern. A lower score is a prompt to inspect whether the inside ski is staying flat, joining late, or moving differently from the outside ski.

03 · What it suggests
Inspect

The overall score is high. Later right turns are still worth inspecting because they break the otherwise consistent edge-build pattern.

Edge angle relationship Edge-build rate Timing lag Inside-ski delay
A high score is not about both skis carrying equal pressure — it is about how together they build edge.
A lower score is not always a mistake. It is a prompt to look closer at one part of the turn.
Terrain, snow, turn type, and camera angle all affect how a score should be read.
Treat Edging Similarity as one signal among the replay views, not a verdict.
Symmetry

Compare your left and right turns

Most skiers are not perfectly symmetrical. Poser splits a run into turns so you can compare timing, rhythm, and technique patterns from one side to the other. This makes it easier to see whether an issue repeats every turn, only appears on one side, or shows up when the terrain changes.

Raw clip

The raw ski video

The clip before the replay outputs: camera motion, changing skier distance, and normal phone-video framing.

Head-tracked

Skier centered so movement is easier to compare

Poser locks onto the skier and keeps them centered, so you can watch body position turn after turn without the camera pulling your eye away.

Skeleton overlay

Body alignment drawn on the skier

A pose skeleton tracks shoulders, hips, knees, and skis — making stance, angulation, and the edge-build of each leg easier to inspect frame by frame.

Left and Right turns Edging Similarity · 91 / 100

Left/right turns and Edging Similarity score

Measured complete turns show their scores and direction. Open a metric and compare its turns, then use the replay to inspect the movement.

In this illustrative example, later right turns are useful review moments: check whether the inside ski joins the edge build a little later after transition.

Use the measurements to guide your review

This is an example of interpreting a pattern. Poser explains what each metric measures and lets you loop a turn to form your own observation.

How it works

From ski clip to technique feedback

1

Upload your clip

Choose a short ski video clip from your phone or camera.

2

Primary skier auto-detected

Even if there are multiple people in frame, Poser finds and tracks the right skier.

3

Poser analyzes the movement

The system tracks the skier, estimates body pose, detects turns, and calculates technique metrics.

4

Review your results

Explore your Ski Elements, open a metric, and loop a turn to see the movement behind it.

Filming guide

A better clip gives better feedback

Poser works best when the skier is clear, large in frame, and visible for several linked turns. You do not need a perfect video, but a few simple filming choices make the analysis much more useful.

  • Ski toward the camera.
  • Keep the skier large in frame, use zoom.
  • Avoid backlit silhouettes.
  • Capture at least 6–8 linked turns if possible.
  • Use 60 FPS when available.
  • Upload normal-speed video, not slow motion.

Who it's for

For skiers who want clearer feedback between lessons

Recreational skiers

Understand what your turns look like, not just what they feel like.

Carving-focused skiers

Check whether both skis build edge together through the top of the turn.

Instructors & coaches

Use visual overlays and turn metrics to support technique conversations.

Clubs & training groups

Give skiers a consistent way to review clips after training.

Who's building it

Built by a skier, instructor, and software engineer

Christian Hansen, founder of Poser
“The goal is not to replace coaching — it's to turn real ski clips into clearer replay views, objective movement signals, and better technique conversations.”

Poser is built by Christian Hansen so that any skier with a phone can get objective feedback and feel the joy of improving their skiing.

FAQ

Questions skiers ask

Is Poser free?

Yes. You can start with 1 free clip, then get a $100 Season Pass to analyze your skiing all season.

Do I need sensors or special hardware?

No. Poser works from ski video.

Can I upload from my phone?

Yes. Phone video is fine if the skier is clear and large enough in frame.

How long should the clip be?

Aim for 10–20 seconds. Film enough to include at least 6-8 turns.

What does Poser analyze today?

Poser analyzes Balance, Steering, Pressure, and Edging from a short ski video. Review Hands forward, Stance width, Turn rhythm, G-force, Angulation, and Edging Similarity alongside your replay.

What is Edging Similarity?

It measures how well the inside and outside ski build edge together as the turn develops.

Is Poser a replacement for a ski instructor?

No. Poser helps you inspect movement objectively and identify patterns, but it should support coaching, practice, and your own review.

What if the analysis is wrong?

Video quality, camera angle, snow, terrain, and skier visibility matter. Treat scores as analysis prompts, not final judgments.
