Title : The New Guide to Skiing: A Step-by-Step Guide in Color, Revised Edition
Author : Martin Heckelman
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : I learnt from this book

I was a beginner when I bought this book. I followed the instruction to practice. By the end of that ski season, I could already go down diamond slopes.

I think it would be easier for most people to learn skiing from instructors. But if you like learning from books instead (like me), this book is an excellent choice, at least it worked for me. This book teach you a lot of advanced technique, which I find it very useful on bumpy or steep slopes.

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 : Free-Heel Skiing: Telemark and Parallel Techniques for All Conditions (Mountaineers Outdoor Expert Series)
Author : Paul Parker
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : The Bible of Learning to Telemark.

The book is wonderful.

It is abound with simple, practical, and easy to remember helpful hints;I call them little golden nuggets of information that you take with you on each run, or even turn, as you practice your downhill ski skills On or Off Piste.

It also has a wonderful introduction to the history of skiing and a very honest analysis/assessment of telemark gear.

It is incredibly suited for all beginner and intermediate tele-skiers.

Title : Cross-Country Skiing: Building Skills For Fun And Fitness (Mountaineers Outdoor Expert)
Author : Steve Hindman
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : An excellent comprehensive primer on enjoying the snow via skis

Aspiring skiers will love Cross-Country Skiing: Building Skills For Fun And Fitness: it joins others in Mountaineers' 'Outdoor Expert' series, providing a long-time PSIA instructor's techniques using step-by-step photos and learning activities to back instruction. Common problems receive sidebars of easily-accessed information, while technique is surveyed for different terrain and snow conditions. Cross-Cross-Country Skiing: Building Skills For Fun And Fitness: isn't just about technique, though: it includes games, health concerns, and tips on selecting skis and clothing. An excellent comprehensive primer on enjoying the snow via skis.

Title : Harald Harb's Essentials of Skiing (Includes Free DVD)
Author : Harald Harb
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Great book that focuses on key skills

This is now one of the best books in my ski library, and I have nearly everything that is currently in print as well as a few things that are no longer in print.

Harald Harb's "Essentials of Skiing" approaches 6 fundamental skill areas which are applicable to all types of skiing: Tipping, Flexing/Extending, Counterbalancing(ie, angulation), counteracting, fore/aft balance and thoughts about the upper body.

A skier at any level can benefit from the insights, mental imagary and drills contained in this book for each of these skill areas. Additionally, there are dryland exercises and other conceptual exercises to help understand and feel what the body is supposed to be doing while skiing.

The pictures and diagrams are all first rate.

One thing I really like about this book is that unlike his previous two books which provided learning progressions towards expert skiing, this book instead provides a toolbox of information and drills to fine tune the skiing of any skier at any level. It focuses individually on the fundamental skills which all skiers use and will help them discover which skills they are deficient in and how to change that fact. The book not only covers what these skills are, but helps you understand the nuances to continually improve your execution of each skill.

Additionally, this book is not biased towards any particular ski method, including Harald Harb's own PMTS system presented in his earlier books(which I also reccomend heartily). Any skier, using any system, can benefit from every word in this book.

But what I really like about this book are all of the many insights and nuances presented about each of these fundamental skills. After you read the chapter on tipping, for example, you will blow the minds of your friends, fellow skiers or ski students with all of your knowledge and insight on how and why we tip our skis to turn. Reading the book I felt like Harald was giving away many of his secret coaching tricks for the price of a book.

The provided DVD is quite a bit shorter than the previous ones, but its also included for free with the book, so who is complaining? More online video content is promised. The video content is primarily a series of demonstrations showing some of the drills which are presented in the book, executed by Harald Harb himself.

In short, this is a great book on how to ski better. All teachers and coaches should own this book. I don't care who you are, if you read this book and practice the drills, your skiing will improve.

Title : Bode: Go Fast, Be Good, Have Fun
Author : Bode Miller
Rating : 4 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Introspective Bode

I've just finished reading Bode's book after reading the Herminator's auto biography and what struck me is the difference each of them views their life, surroundings, and the meaning of it all. Whereas both exude confidence and a common vitriol to the hounding press and media, Bode comes across as introspective, self admittedly shy, compared to the all confident, all conquering Maier.

Both are obviously very special athletes - Maier crushing the race courses and his opponents on the World Cup circuit, but Bode perhaps his own demons in his quest to find meaning in life. It was rather surprising to learn that winning at all costs is not central to Bode's life.

For ski racers, both are a good read. A bit plodding at times to maintain a high level of interest, but a good view of what makes each of them tick and keep at the great white circus.

Title : Dawson's Guide to Colorado's Fourteeners, Vol. 1: The Northern Peaks
Author :
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Dawson Makes You Get Off Your Duff...

... and get out to the mountains he loves.

He was the first person in history to ski down all of Colorado's fourteeners. He's climbed all at least once and many several times. Among his accomplishments are four ascents up the Diamond face of Longs Peak, so it is no surprise that Longs Peak figures prominently in this text. Dawson began climbing at an early age, and has written several other guide books for hikers in Colorado. His illustrations are excellent, and his narratives are brief enough to keep your interest and meaty enough to provide the information most are looking for.

Title : The Story of Modern Skiing
Author : John Fry
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : a gold medal book

This is just a great book about the world of skiing. John Fry combines a complete knowledge of skiing with a terrific writing style that makes every page a joy to read.
