Many years of experience working with recreational skiers has allowed ski coaches Giles and Colin to carefully select content for this app. There are 4 main sections that will allow you to identify the areas of ski technique that are misunderstood and frustrate good skiers. These areas are the technical and tactical focuses that are consistently used to develop their clients and to achieve fantastic results in improved ski performance. Try it out for yourself!


Overview

This has two functions, firstly it allows you to see how the three lessons fit into the wider context of the section heading. Secondly it allows you to briefly preview the lessons and then select the most appropriate to your needs.


Video lessons

Each lesson is designed to be watched at home, on the slopes, in the restaurant, on the lift. The information and footage gives you a simple, effective focus to implement into your skiing. Your confidence and technique will improve as you revisit the lesson as many times as you choose. Keep your own private instructor in your pocket and progress at your own pace.


Something For Every Skier

The lessons can be used at different levels and for a variety of goals

Stronger, Easier Parallel Turns - outlines the essentials for effective parallel skiing all over the mountain. Every skier, regardless of level will benefit from strong foundations.

Cleaner Carving - is accessible to any parallel skier and the lesson content has no upper limit to who will benefit.

Steeper and Narrower - means different things to different people. The ideas presented work everywhere from blue runs to couloirs.

Improve Your Bumps - is great for enthusiasts aiming to dominate the moguls, but just as useful for those people who try to avoid the dreaded things but who inevitably get caught out every holiday.
