How to unlock the Peak Perfection achievement in Kinect Sports Season Two - Definitive Guide
This has to be done on the 3 defult courses which are 'Crystal Canyon', 'Racers Ridge' and 'Perilous Pass'
Doing a perfect run is quite simple once you note the following things:
- This can be done Single Player or Multiplayer
- You do not need to win the race for it to count so you do not need to stress about being quick. If you continue to have trouble stand up straighter to slow yourself down
- You cannot over lean. You will not run outside of the course lines so feel free to lean hard to the side of the run to get in the flags
- If you hit a flag it will count as going through it
- If you miss one it will let you know
- You do not need a perfect run out of the gate
- You do not need to jump. I would suggest keeping your feet planted and use the few seconds off the jump to see where the next one is going to be
- If you miss a gate go straight into the Kinect Pause pose and select 'Restart Race'
- Race a Rookie Opponent, the harder the opponent the hrader the gate placement.
Here is my suggested way to race:
Note:
- Legs spread far apart to make tighter turns
- Hands resting on knees to support yourself and make the position more comfortable

Haha, I love the fact that you took the time to put on goggles and a tuque for those pictures!

For this achievement you have to race on all three tracks in skiing mode without going on the outside of the gates. Also note that you have to have each ski run perfect in order for it to count. (There are two runs per race)
Things that are not required for this achievement to unlock:
1. You do not have to get a perfect start on any of the races
2. You are allowed to hit the gates, you just cannot completely miss them on the outside.
3. Perfect jumps also do not count toward this achievement. So if you miss one during a run, you can still earn this achievement.
4. You do not have to do this in succession. So in other words you can have two perfect races, mess up on the third one, and restart the third race and still earn the achievement without having to start from square one again.
Notes:
You can set the difficulty to whatever you like to get the achievement.(Credit to J BIGGS SFV OG)
However I am not sure whether or not you can lose the race because when I got it I won every race. Maybe somebody can clarify more on this in the comments below for everybody else. I promise you'll get credit for helping my guide out.

Difficulty is irrelevant

you should add to try and stay as straight as possible as this slows you down making it easier to hit the gates also make sure you don't tuck as this will speed your guy up making the checkpoints harder to hit !

I found the first two races no problem but the third race was a pain in the ass. To this end I wrote down the directions for the gates on a piece of paper and held it in front of me and just leaned in the appropriate direction. It might be easier to get somebody to call these out to you, but anyway....
See Kennansoft's guide for tips on stances.
I chose Single Player and Rookie Opponent (doesn't have to be Rookie and i expect you can do this multi-player).
