Title : The Athletic Skier Author : Warren Witherell Rating : 3 Stars out of 5. Summary : Careful
As a PSIA Ski Instructor I would recommend folks be very careful about some of the canting information in this book. The book assumes that all bowlegged skiers are overcanted and while this is mostly true it is not absolutely true. Many bowlegged skiers (including myself) are naturally undercanted and the advice presented in this book is incorrect for us. This book seems to be the source for the 'if you are bowlegged, cant on the outside of the ski' common wisdom, and again that is simply not true in all cases. Canting solutions are individual and must not be over generalized. Instead, read the descriptions of what effects over or under canting can have and see which fits you. Then cant as necessary.
Also, I would say that this 'used to be' the definitive guide. After reading both this and All Mountain Skier by Mark Elling, I would definately recommend the latter. Ellings book is much more useful for actual practice. There is not much in here that is not better covered in Ellings book. Also, the technical information in Ellings book (on canting for example) is much more accurate.

Title : Snowboarding: A Woman's Guide (Ragged Mountain Press Woman's Guide) Author : Julia Carlson Rating : 4 Stars out of 5. Summary : It works, BUT...
As a snowboard instructor, I opened this book with hesitation - I have found most snowboard 'guides' or 'instruction manuals' to offer tips and technique that differ greatly from the proper technique I have been trained to teach and have very successfully used for the last 6 years. However, I found this text to offer good general tips, especially when it comes to getting yourself well-equipped with the proper sized equipment. The pictures are very clear and, considering that the designer/writer/person who took the photos did not have the rider dress in the most extreme of 90's board fashion, they still look stylish today.
In all, a useful book for someone who is a text-based learner. A word of caution to those venturing out for their first time: a lesson from a certified instructor will get you started much better than any book or 'friend who knows what he/she is doing' ever will.
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 : Great format and delivery - Well Done.
The CD-ROM is packed full of great advice delivered in easy to read point form (like an Aide Memoire). Each sentence or teaching point stands on its own. I could take one gem of knowledge at a time; without having to wade through pages of pretentious prose. The explanations were very precise and most meaningful to those with some skiing experience under their belt. Best read with an open mind.
Title : Hermann Maier: The Race of My Life Author : Hermann Maier Rating : 2 Stars out of 5. Summary : Technocratic
As a friend of Bill Johnson and a longtime racer and race fan, I looked forward to the book, but after 100 pages it was clear the technocratic writing style would not bring Maier's compelling recovery to much life. On the facts alone one feels deeply for Maier personally and respects his incredible rehab, but oft cited medical reports,training charts and plans, and media strategy do little to tell us how Maier personally coped with his losses and regained his form. Clearly Maier has great courage, on and off snow, but the book reduces him largely to a re-engineered man and athlete, rather than someone facing human and career death who by family,will,passion,faith and science recovers. That story is there, but barely. To be fair, the book seemed to be a function of Maier's stoicism, which is clear throughout the book. I think there is more to Maier than he was willing to tell.
Title : Mountain Dreamers: Visionaries of Sierra Nevada Skiing Author : Robert Frohlich Rating : 5 Stars out of 5. Summary : Mountain Dreamers: Visionaires of Sierra Nevada Skiing
Fabulous pictures and fascinating information about the people who made skiing in the Sierra possible. You don't have to be a skier to enjoy this book!
