4.0 out of 5 stars Buy this DVD, You will love it!, March 17, 2006

By	P. OBRIEN "POB" (Dublin, Ireland) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've been skiing now for nearly 10 years and during this time I've had many ski instructors with different styles of teaching but nothing compares to the information prodived by this DVD. Lito goes straight to the point and tells you exactly what you need to know from early weight shift to correct body position for the various runs from easy blues to serious off piste.

Within a day or two of practicing his techniques I found myself carving more arcs and in more control of my skis. Which face it, is the real reason we all wanted to ski in the first place. Not only am I in more control but for once I feel like I am progressing out of the intermediate rut. This DVD gives lots of freeze frames and easy to understand instruction which you can practice the minute you hit the slopes.

I found the DVD so useful I ended up buying his book as well which gives you even more insight into the different techniques from small radius arcs to mogul runs. Thus I had to go for another ski holiday which I've just returned from and boy does this book complement the DVD. I'm more of a visual learner myself and reckoned that the book wouldn't add any more additional information but I can safely say that I was wrong.

The total running time for this DVD is just under 60 mins and he does repeat himself alot but this just proves to concrete how important some of the core aspects of his ski technique are.

Anyway I highly recommend this DVD and believe me you won't be dissappointed!

5.0 out of 5 stars DVD Review, January 18, 2007

By	RM - See all my reviews

This DVD is excellent. The points can be practiced and lead to clear improvement and more enjoyment of skiing. The instruction is private lesson quality. The author does not overwhelm you with details. The lessons learned apply to all levels of skiing. A great purchase for those looking to bump up from intermediate to expert but also really good for beginners and children

5.0 out of 5 stars This is the Breakthrough video to buy - watch it daily when skiing, January 27, 2007

By	Angela M. Hey (Portola Valley, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

As this was filmed after the advent of shaped skis this is the best of Lito Tejada-Flores videos to buy. His graceful moves down the slopes at Aspen will inspire you.

If you are trying to be a better intermediate skier watch this video every day and memorize the pictures. Then when you go down the slopes think of Lito and his wife and try to emulate them.

Practise, watch, practise, watch, ... - over and over again. Every time I watch it I see something new. I must have watched it at least 15 times and the words get a bit tedious - but I'm never bored with the skiing technique.

I'd get all three if you can afford it, but if you only get one, this is the most comprehensive and its not necessary to have the earlier videos to appreciate this one.
