Skiing Made Easy is a practical guide to learning to ski based on many happy seasons of ski teaching.
It takes you through the beginner's progression from snowplough to parallel turns, starting at the very beginning and not assuming any prior knowledge.
The book suggests relevant exercises to develop and improve your skills. Common faults are identified, along with the best ways to correct them.
'By the way' sections contain information about many of the little things that people assume you just know, but you may not.
'This is the book I wish I'd had when I started skiing' - reviewer on Amazon.
How to buy:
Skiing Made Easier is the follow-up to Skiing Made Easy, and picks up from where the first book left off.
The first chapter is Refining Your Parallel Turns.
The chapters on ski technique beyond basic parallel turns are Carving, Short Turns, Bumps and Off Piste.
There are then further chapters on Avalanche and Mountain Safety, Ski Psychology, Physical Preparation, Ski Servicing and Alpine Wildlife.
As in Skiing Made Easy, common faults are identified and exercises suggested to correct them and to develop your skills.
'By the way' passages contain bits of skiing knowhow that could otherwise take years to pick up.
