gerutschte bochten; geslipte bochten skidded turns Explanation: ••• definition of 'rutschen': 'Gecontroleerd glijden op je Skis, tot aan maximaal dwars op de Skirichting. Na elke bocht glij je een beetje, dit is het Rutschen. Bij Carveskien doe je dit juist niet, je gaat dan door de bocht zonder te slippen, en stuurt steeds na de bocht wat meer door, tegen de helling aan waardoor je op die manier je snelheid onder controle houdt.' (http://www.encyclo.nl/lokaal/10217 ) I think a 'gerutschte bocht' = a 'skidded turn', and a 'gesneden bocht' = a 'carved turn'. ('geslipte bocht' seems to be synonymous with 'gerutschte bocht', as per Steven's link (http://www.snowpepper.com/2012/05/soorten-bochten/ ) Example sentence(s):
