Title : Skiing for Dummies
Author : Allen St. John
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Whether you've already tried skiing, or want to
This is a terrific guide! For people who have already tried skiing and are still somewhat mystified by the complexity of the equipment and the rental shop and just finding one's way around, this book is an invaluable aid in moving up to the next level. For people considering taking up the sport in the next season, it will help you to have a satisfying, enjoyable experience.
The author provides handy, valuable tips on things as simple as what to wear, and things as complex as how to choose a ski. He explains how ski boots should fit, and how to rent them. There is a big emphasis on the importance of taking a lesson, but more importantly, how to get the most out of that lesson.
For anyone who plans a ski trip for next season, whether it is a day or a week or more, the small investment in this wonderful guide will be returned many times over. Even the most experienced skiers will find something useful.

Title : Allen Mike's Really Cool Telemark Tips
Author : Allen O'Bannon
Rating : 3 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Shallow facts
You really need Parker's book to understand the tips of this juvenile book. But once you've read Parker's book you immediately realise that this book is just collection of tips from Parker drafted in comics. Without explanations of course. I don't do anything unless I believe the tip is sound and this book does not convince me. Yeah, it's funny for a while but it does not supply the enthusiast the facts really needed to improve in free heels stuff.

Title : The Complete Snowboarder
Author : Jeff Bennett
Rating : 2 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Buy the Illustrated Guide to Snowboarding instead.
This book is decent, but the Illustrated Guide to Snowboarding is a much more in-depth and well written book. It is also more entertaining with funny drawings and tips. This book really only skims the surface on all the areas you need to start snowboarding.

Title : Anyone Can Be an Expert Skier 1: The New Way to Ski (Includes Bonus DVD)
Author : Harald Harb
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : false information
Yes, this is the author of, "Anyone Can Be an Expert Skier." I am doing this to fairly represent a service for the public. Regular ski instructors don't want you to know about the PMTS. They misrepresent our product.
The PMTS Direct Parallel system is growing fast and our system works better than any other system. You can look for yourself on the forum listed below. Have a look at what real skiers are saying, skiers who have experienced the PMTS Direct Parallel first hand.
The poster who posted before me has no clue of what he is talking about, as we do not teach PMTS at Loveland and there are no qualified or accredited PMTS instructors at Loveland.
It maybe there are false instructors promoting themselves as a PMTS teachers. This is wrong and deceptive. Make sure before you book a PMTS instructor. PMTS instructors are listed and qualified, on the web site: www.pmts.org. A regular PSIA instructor can not teach PMTS, that's what this fellow experienced. You check with our web site for real PMTS instructors, who are trained and accredited. Here it is the forum:

Title : Tao of Skiing : Aide Memoire for Cross-Country Skiing Aficionados (The Way to learn to Cross Country Ski)
Author : Lise Meloche
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Key product
The amazing thing is that... this CD cost me less than a day pass at the local ski site, and saved me years of floundering around on snow. Tao (the way) of skiing is a large web site on a CD-Rom, complete with ample advise (text, images and small movies). The movies were a lot of fun and the text was straight to the point. (The way you would want to be instructed). Personally, I thoroughly enjoyed the package and appreciated what it has done for me... and I'm not hung on an occasional Typo.

Title : Backcountry Skiing Adventures: Vermont and New York: Classic Ski and Snowboard Tours in Vermont and New York
Author : David Goodman
Rating : 4 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Great book for cross country and telemark skiers
This is a great book if you are looking for a guide to some of the best cross country and telemark trails, however since i was looking for more of a downhill backcountry guide, this is not really what i was looking for, but it is still a very informative and well written book.

Title : Harald Harb's Essentials of Skiing (Includes Free DVD)
Author : Harald Harb
Rating : 3 Stars out of 5.
Summary : I like it! But...
I couldn't wait to get this book after having read Harald Harb's ACBES 1 2. I was hungry for a simpler version of those two books and I think Harb delivered.
At first read, the book is much more reader-friendly than the two ACBES books. It's great that Harb focused on movements of the whole body and not just the foot, as he grossly overanalyzed in the previous two books.
My only major problem with his books in general is that while his system is superior to any other instructional skiing methodology, Harb yet to learn the art of user-friendly explanations rather than getting too academic. But "Essentials" is the closest he's come and it feels good.
The accompanying DVD's production quality isn't as good as the previous discs. It's only about 15 min. and at the end he reveals it's basically a teaser for another set of DVDs he'll release soon. It got into topics like Counterbalancing and flexion so early on. How about basic stance? How about arm position? This is where I was disappointed in the lack of simplicity in this and many other DVDs. If you're going to title your series "Anyone Can Be an Expert Skier" or "Essentials of Skiing," you had better make sure that "Anyone" can understand how to even start the "Essentials!" (Do we have to leave simplicity to Marty Henckleman's old-school videos?)
One thing I wish all ski gurus would keep in mind is that the target market for skiing instruction is people who, yes, want to learn to ski... but first and foremost ski to have FUN. There's a huge opening for instruction that's easy and enjoyable too without being so academic. The closest I've seen to being both thorough and valuable is Harb's colleague Lito Tejada Flores-- who's taken Harb's PMTS and adapted a more Zen-like lesson for the novice skier.
I would recommend "Essentials," though, for anyone (like me) who thought Harb's ACBES books were a bit too academic for such simple, ingenious teaching technique as PMTS.

Title : Snowboarding: A Woman's Guide (Ragged Mountain Press Woman's Guide)
Author : Julia Carlson
Rating : 4 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Great book for women who want to learn to snowboard!
I am a 24 year old female who has been secretly yearning to try snowboarding. I haven't because I didn't know what stuff to rent or buy, or how not to look stupid. After reading this book, I can't wait to try it. Great explanations of what gear is best for women and why, and detailed explanations of what to do once you are on the snow. Very lighthearted and encouraging tone.

Author : Ron LeMaster
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Vital information for new skiers
This book contains a lot of information useful to new skiers. I wish I had it when I started skiing a few years ago. Worth at least the price of a few skiing lessons.
