Summary: Solid Advice for all levels of abilities
Comment: The author does a good job providing tips and lessons for all levels. What I like most about it is that the author does all this very concisely making this book a quick and effective read. After reading this book, I've experienced some 'breakthroughs' and have taken my skiing to the next level. My only minor complaint is that the illustrations are somewhat lacking but I would not hesitate to buy the book because of this.

Summary: Free Your Heel, Free Your Mind
Comment: Paul Parker wrote the definitive discourse on off-the-run skiing with his first edition of this book. Time has only improved it. Every skier from the expert backcountry telemarker to the improving bunny-hill snowplower MUST read this book. What Mr. Parker has done is to condense all the theories and techniques and observations of the skiing community into a simple, progressive instructional guide. He starts with very basic snowplowing and ends with telemarking, and in between shows how all the different styles are linked and flow into each other. All of it is described with marvelous clarity and engaging style. The 2nd edition adds stories, commentaries, and pictures which motivate the reader to get out into the snow and play! My only complaint is that they don't publish a waterproof small-size edition that I can take out skiing with me!

Summary: Truly a bible of free heel skiing
Comment: Great book that all free heel skiers should read. Eye opener is that "Telemark" is just a turn - free heel skiing is hell of a lot more. Good reasoning why you should do the tele the way Mr Parker is proposing. This book changed my free heel skiing for good.
