Le terme anglais "edging" signifie à la fois «prise de carres»(le fait de se servir des carres, dans un virage par exemple), et «angle de prise de carres»(l'angle formé par cette prise de carre(s), selon qu'il est accentué ou non). Comme le mouvement a un effet sur un ou sur deux skis, le terme peut s’écrire avec «carre(s) »au singulier ou au pluriel. 5, record 1, French, - prise%20de%20carres
