Book Description
Ski like a champion! Now you can break through to the next level of ski performance with The Skier's Edge. Ski technique expert Ron LeMaster will help you master the mechanics required for great skiing-explaining how it's done, showing how it looks, and describing how it feels.
You'll gain greater insight into how the skis interact with the snow and learn how best to manipulate your skis, boots, and poles on the steepest slopes, in monster mogul fields, and through the deepest powder. Technique tips and kinesthetic cues help translate the sensation of each movement. LeMaster enhances his instruction with one-of-a-kind, sequential photographs showing several of the best skiers in the world, including World Cup racers and top-ranked instructors. These unique photomontages clearly illustrate correct techniques with multiple images, guiding you step by step through challenging sections on the slopes.
Get the most out of your skiing potential. Get The Skier's Edge.
From the Publisher
"A great tool for athletes looking to understand the sport and for coaches looking for ways to articulate their critique. Technical enough for left-brainers yet easy to understand for right-brainers. LeMaster explains sensations I've never been able to put into words."
Edith Thys Senior Editor, SKI Magazine Two-time Olympian
"A must read for all ski instructors, ski professionals, and good skiers who want to get better."
Norman D. Crerar President, INTERSKI International Committee Chair, Canadian Ski Instructors Alliance
