The pole contact was also a reason she leaned in slightly after contact. Her holding of the CA is excellent from the previous arc. She also was using great foot pull back. She does sometimes lose some balance especially on that right foot, it's the weaker of the two in alignment. Coincidentally that is the knee she injured.

If you get to use a weighted release, you have to have the timing perfect, because once initiated there is little you can do to change your new angle onset or direction. Especially in this case going into a hairpin. Notice how here M.S. gets over extended on the outside half of the body. She has to push hard and then step on her inside ski. (blocking the pole had another influence) Not ideal, however unless you have coached or raced at this level of intensity; you may not realize this is still a great reaction by MS at the highest level. With the speed and energy she came out of the last arc with, she had no alternative but to adapt. Also, if you study M.S.'s skiing, her right knee and right leg boot set up is slightly off. So she is less confidence on that side. Her reaction is to play it safe and extend the leg, rather than landing on a bend angled leg and knee, in other words, with a knocked kneed stance. I have demonstrated this numerous times on my "Blog" in previous posts.
