I wonder that an intermediate would gain anything other than a feeling of overwhelming deficiency.
While Ted's technique illustrates tipping, leg flexion and upper/lower body separation along with early movement of the COM down the hill, he is showing the culmination of years of skills application. An intermediate might be able to see and be inspired by the individual and combined skills shown by Ted, but they need more realistic examples of the progression than the ultimate outcome. Someone trying to mimic his turn initiation at the speed an intermediate typically travels would have a rude awakening.
That is why instructors attempt to demonstrate the next level skills a student should be aspiring to, not showing level 5s perfect arc to arc carving.
