Skiing Made Easy: Complete beginner to parallel turns

By David P. Mitchell

This is the Standard Colour version of Skiing Made Easy, which is still excellent quality but more affordable than the original Premium Colour edition. Skiing Made Easy is a practical guide to learning to ski, based on many happy seasons of ski teaching in France. It starts with a chapter about putting on your skis and boots, then goes through a beginner's progression from snowplough to parallel turns. I suggest relevant exercises to develop and improve your skills, and identify common faults and how to correct them. 'By the way' sections contain information about many of the little things that people often just assume you know, when you may not. Most of the demonstrations are performed by expert skier Marina. The book assumes no prior knowledge, so it is suitable for complete beginners and people who are in the early stages of learning to ski. It will help you see the big picture, and understand why your instructor is asking you to make particular movements. Even if you've been skiing lots of times, you'll understand more clearly why you use certain techniques, and you'll probably learn things you never knew before. For an experienced skier who is planning to help a novice friend or family member, this book could be invaluable. Happy skiing!
