Skiing Mechanics and the Claw Ski

I read this book from end to end and found this book very technical in nature.If you are into the engineering of ski design and want to know exactly the dynamics of skiing this is the book for you. There is some laymans terms in this book and most people would understand the non-technical stuff.The book talks about the Claw Ski. John Howe designed this ski and the Claw Plate with all the vibration dampning. This ski design is taking notice all over the world...
