Customer Reviews: Read 35 more reviews... Very good package April 3, 2008R. Basic Very good book, and all other books from this author, it can help improve your skiing. The only thing that annoyed me was a feeling that Harold enjoys too much being in charge....Would recommend this book  Forget everything you've been taught! February 20, 2008EddieTheWhite (Colorado) Many so-called "professional" ski instructors want to trap you into thinking that the only way to learn how to ski is to start with the wedge. I know that's how I learned how to ski. And it's what kept me off the Blue and Black runs for the first three years of skiing. But then I discovered PMTS, and Harald Harb's program. The next time I went to the mountain I was skiing parallel and controlling my speed with the "phantom turn". Now I can ski almost the entire mountain, and can do so without feeling out of control! And I've taken the PMTS teaching and shown others how to do it as well. I'm not a professional instructor, but every year I will find someone on the mountain, struggling to get down a simple Green run using the wedge. I'll offer a few tips straight from Harald's teaching methods, and usually I'll have the person skiing parallel and in control after 15 minutes of instruction! So throw out the wedge, and learn how to really ski! A whole new way to learn to ski. NO DORKY WEDGE TO UN-LEARN April 7, 2007KenAmazonO (Midwest, USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful Ugly cover. Great book. Be sure to get the video, too. Tested 7 years December 23, 2006Slava G. (Oregon) 0 out of 6 found this review helpful I participated at list 1 camp every year (some years 2 camps) and private lessons with HH and his team for last 7 years I literally learned to ski from Harald and Diana (I started skiing 1999 spring) Info contained in this book and exercises described have been tested on me and me alike. They do work and work brilliantly! If you still don't have a book please buy and buy more than one give support to Harb Ski Systems . They priced this book way low! In my opinion it worth at least $4200 I got 4... Slava G. Great tutorial book November 15, 2006M. McGee (Berthoud, CO USA) 8 out of 9 found this review helpful This book has what you need to make progress as a skier. The photo sequences are highlighted to point out the objective. Any individual lesson or exercise can be used independently - so you can pick one as a refresher to practice on. The lessons are well sequenced with accurate and detailed descriptions of exercises. The book is readable and coherent. There are a few of defenders of Professional Ski Instructors of America (PSIA) and other ski instruction books that have posted here and given what I think are unfair low ratings. I think they are somewhat narrow in their criticism. They seem to focus on the fact that he is not preaching the "approved" PSIA method. So what? Is there only one way to teach someone how to ski? I personally used this book and advanced my ski skill and confidence in a few weeks, after having stagnated for a couple of years. I had taken numerous lessons from PSIA intructors and progress was slow. My opinion is that most self-motivated skiers could benefit from the lessons in this book (at a low price). Give it an honest try and then go pay $75 for a PSIA "approved" lesson and see which one gave you more insight and advancement. Oh my, Mr. Harb challenged the Ski Instructors PSIA church! | |||||||||||
