Publisher's Synopsis
This is a book designed for people who can ski but want to improve.It uses text and photographs to describe tecniques, how to behave on and off piste, what not to do, and it does so with a touch of humour. It describes how to get from the stem to parallel, how to ski powder and how to deal wth moguls and ice. Clothing, ski design, and maintainance all have their own sections within the book, as does safety and preservation. It's All Downhill From Here is written to be read as a novel rather than a dour instruction manual, with my tongue just a little bit tucked into my cheek. I hope you find it useful, and I hope you will enjoy reading it.
