Default Free Weekly eMail Mogul & Powder Skiing Tips

Aspen has a very successful multi-day mogul skiing clinic - Bumps For Boomers - that teaches skiers how to safely navigate moguls in full control without the need for fast reflexes ... and without stressing your knees or back. The Bumps For Boomers web site ( www.BumpsForBoomers.com ) also offers visitors the ability to sign up to receive free weekly mogul and powder skiing tips via email. The tips come directly from the on-snow skiing clinics. Also available is a link to a recent NY Times article on the program. Bumps For Boomers is an adult specialty program of the Ski & Snowboard Schools Of Aspen.

Default Just say no to bumps

If I were the King of Winter there would be no such thing as bump skiing technique. You are snow skiing, just ski ON the snow. Yeah, the terrain may change from flat to steep to flat really fast but it's a matter of making the appropriate adjustment over the front or back of the skis that keeps you ON the snow. If you ski in proper balance all terrain and conditions will be in your grasp. I know you bumpers out there may disagree but I find that the ability to control turn shaping in all conditions is preferable to one specific style or technique applicable to only one condition. I see skiers sucked into the short turn zipper line all the time but I rarely see anyone making medium or long turns in bumps.
