From the Author
Author's comments
My original notion for the book was to provide a comprehensive look at the physical requirements of skiing and appropriate conditioning routines for skiers who wanted to push their personal envelope. The publisher desired a more inclusive work that would incorporate on-hill exercises and methodology. Nevertheless, the book is still primarily focused on physical fitness. As the book is now six years old, there is nothing on shaped ski technology, however, motor skill development is still applicable.
Synopsis
Whether you ski competitively or recreationally, you know that great skiing requires great control. Only with total command of your body can you achieve and maintain balance in motion. Exceptionally good skiing and performance skiing does not come from wearing a flashy powder suit. Performance skiing comes form the condition of the motor under all the stretch neon and Gore-Tex.
