Book Reviews of Breakthrough on the New Skis: Say Goodbye to the Intermediate Blues
Book Review: As good as you can get from a book!
Summary: 4 Stars
I had skied for about 4 years and had never gotten very comfortable skiing steeper slopes because I found it very difficult to control my speed because I was not able to control my turns as well as I wanted. I did a lot of "push off, turn, stop".
This book explained the mechanics and the physics of turning with shaped ski's so well, that it was so easy to improve. I have only had one day on the slopes since I finished the book, but it was without question the best day I have ever had skiing!!
I found I could be in control. I found that I could turn when I wanted and how I wanted with confidence. I also found that I could ski longer with out getting fatigued.
If you are just starting out skiing or want to turn the corner (no pun intended) to a more advanced skier, take a weekend and read this book. Give it to someone you want to ski better too.
