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 : This book doesn't age --- it just gets a new edition

I am pretty sure a new edition will come out soon, given the rapidity of gear evolution. The basics remain the same --- the technique just gets refined and simplified over time. Except for the telemark technique, this book can be read with profit by any skier, alpine or nordic.

Title : Ollie's Ski Trip
Author : Elsa Maartman Beskow
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Gorgeous, old-world art and story

Ollie gets his first pair of skiis and uses them in the woods near his home somewhere in Scandanavia. He meets up with Jack-Frost, and some other colorful characters. The art-work is of a style and beauty long missing in childrens' books. Ms. Beskow's drawings are from an earlier period in children's literature, and are quite nostaligic for those of us raised with our grandparent's childrens' books.

Title : All-Mountain Skier : The Way to Expert Skiing
Author : R. Mark Elling
Rating : 3 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Pretty good book on skiing

I started out really liking this book, but was less impressed by the end. What I liked about the book is the writing style. Its well written, in an engaging way that makes it easy to keep turning the pages. However, I felt that much of the content was a bit disorganized, like a brain-dump of a terrific skier, but not presented in a way to nurture a skier along from one skill to the next. A good skier will be easily bored with this book in my opinion, I learned very little from it.

I offered the book to an intermediate friend of mine, thinking it would be ideal for him. He started out being enchanted by the writing style also, but after a few chapters gave up because the content was too scattered and random in the way its presented. In my opinion this is like a a brain dump from a ski instructor that has learned a lot of "tips" over the years and tried to find an engaging way to publish a bunch of those tips into a book form. I didn't entirely agree with a few points, but overall, I thought most of the tips and technique ideas were accurate and well presented with great drawings to illustrate them. Just kind of random order and so much information that an intermediate would be quickly overwhelmed and not know what to try next to apply any of this. My intermediate friend put the book down after a few chapters and just said it was "too much to think about". Each chapter did provide exercises at the end of the chapter for applying what that chapter talks about. So a committed skier could take them one chapter at a time and go work on it perhaps. However, I thought many of the exercises were just the typical exercises that every PSIA instructor uses to emphasize skills. What if the reader performs the exercises wrong? There were very few if any photos illustrating proper way to do the exercises. And the order of the chapters is not a step ladder of growth..its just random different topics.

I think the book could be useful for an intermediate that doesn't plan to read the whole book and follow it from start to end, but rather keep it as a reference. As they decide they need to work on one particular skill (Let's say after taking a lesson and finding out they are weak in an area), they could read the chapter covering that skill and try the exercises, perhaps remembering that these exercises are very similar to the ones they get in their lesson, and also read the in depth explanations about it..to help sink the ideas into their brain a little better. I see the book as more of a reference tool to come back to, little bits at a time.

I think a ski instructor could benefit from this book also because it provides a lot of examples of how to give a lesson.. It basically *IS* a series of PSIA lessons in a book. An instructor can learn verbalogy to use, exercises to a apply towards specific skills, etc. Of course all of that is also available through standard PSIA literature, but hey...another source doesn't hurt.

For me and my own skiing, there was nothing revolutionary in it. I much prefer "The Skiers Edge" by Ron LeMaster which did indeed teach me some things I didn't know. Its even more technical though...truly a book for experts.

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 : Hermann Maier: The Race of My Life
Author : Hermann Maier
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Skiingwith the best of the best!

I thought that Hermann Maier wrote a very candid and authentic book about his victories and struggles in the world of expert skiing...a help to the layman and an inspiration to the professionals about not giving up and how to reach for those goals/dreams!

This book is a realistic perspective of a true hero and athlete and it's a great read for young and old!

I enjoyed it very much and I applaud Hermann for his perspective on life and on skiing.

Title : Everything the Instructors Never Told You About Mogul Skiing
Author : Dan Dipiro
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Rename to proper mogal skiing

I have been taught and have taught every thing in this book, but NOT AS WELL

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 : The Story of Modern Skiing
Author : John Fry
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : If you like to ski (and read), you'll love this book!

If you are a skier with at least a modicum of curiosity about how the sport you are passionate about evolved and mushroomed, and who the players were along the way, this is a book that tells the whole story, how all the parts fit together, and it reads so well and so easily that at times it seems like a novel, and you wonder what happens next. But the author, John Fry, clearly knows his subject very well and has done his research meticulously, with annotated notes for every chapter, a glossary, bibliography, index of names places, maps, record charts, etc. Skiing is a fun sport, and Fry makes it a comparable pleasure to read about modern skiing's fascinating history. Skiers, it's a great read!
