Synopsis

Breakthrough on the New Skis has been called “the best ski lesson ever written.” In this book, recently out of print but newly reissued, Lito Tejada-Flores shares a simplified series of moves that can successfully transform average intermediate-level skiers into real experts. This book builds on the success of Lito’s earlier best seller, Breakthrough on Skis, (over 100,000 copies sold and loved) and incorporates all the experience Lito gained during the ten years of his intensive, total-saturation ski weeks in Aspen, Colorado Lito’s Breakthrough on Skis books and their companion videos have helped generations of skiers shake off the intermediate blues. Lito believes that it isn’t enough just to cope with the mountain. He claims there is an expert, waiting inside every skier. And he believes that expert skiing is no harder than intermediate-level skiing—just different, requiring different moves, and a different approach you probably never learned in ski school.Breakthrough on the New Skis teaches you:—how to let today’s shaped or super-sidecut skis do most of the work for you.—how to easily link short turns down the steepest slopes.—how to relax your way around the toughest moguls, and float through the deepest powder.—how to ski longer and harder with less muscle fatigue than ever.Tired of wrestling with the mountain and ready to dance with it? This book shows you how.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Lito Tejada-Flores was born at 13,000 feet in the Bolivian Andes, and has spent much of his life in high places, rock climbing and mountaineering in Yosemite Valley, the Alps, Alaska and Patagonia. Since the 60s he has pursued his non-stop passion for skiing, and has been lucky to be able to share his love of skiing through writing, teaching and filmmaking. Lito first published his innovative approach to mastering expert skiing in the book, Breakthrough on Skis, which became the best-selling ski instruction book of all time. An expanded version, Breakthrough on the New Skis, took Lito’s ideas one step farther. And in a companion series of skiing videos, Lito convincingly illustrated his idea that expert skiing is no harder than intermediate-level skiing, just different. When not skiing, or thinking about skiing, Lito keeps busy as a publisher, graphic designer, environmental activist, and occasionally, poet. He lives half the year in Chilean Patagonia, half the year in the Colorado Rockies, with his true love, wilderness photographer, Linde Waidhofer.
