Maybe carving is the wrong word, but when I go fast and turn I expect to slide and make snow fly. There should be some effort required to turn, not in a bad way, but in a "I'm drifting!" way. That would be satisfying.

I see. There is a 'skid' where you send some snow flying, you gotta turn hard and exceed some kinda internal max angle between your 'skis' and your desired turn angle. I think that skid logic could be improved. Try turning really fast!
