Book - Situation Skiing, Jean Claude Killy, Mike Halstead, 1978
Jean-Claude Killy is a French former World Cup alpine ski racer. He dominated the sport in the late 1960s, and was a triple Olympic champion, winning the three alpine events at the 1968 Winter Olympics, becoming the most successful athlete there. He also won the first two World Cup titles, in 1967 and 1968. In this publication he presents information on techniques to enable a skier to handle himself in all conditions and situations. He reveals the strategies he has applied to a wide variety of snow and terrain conditions. First, there's a quick review of basics: exercises for getting in and staying in shape; tips on skiing equipment; a summary of the fundamental elements for the intermediate skier. Then he explains situations, how to "think ahead" as you encounter steep slopes and moguls, gullies and glades, ice and hard-packed snow, and deep powder. He discusses high altitude skiing, tells how to ski glaciers and back-country trails, and even gives away know-how learned in his championship years of downhill, slalom, and giant slalom racing.
