Breakthrough on the New Skis: Say Goodbye to the Intermediate Blues

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.
