An Introduction and General Summary of the North American Ski Instructors Congres~ Report by Andy Shearer There are several general conclusions which I will try to pass on to you concerning the North American Ski Instructor Congress held at Vail, Colorado. These conclusions were drawn not only from my involvement in the demonstrations and the workshops, but also discussions with instructors from every division which I could find represented at Vail. 1. Among the really top skiers present at Vail, there was an amazing similarity in the way they ski. The saying which I am sure we have all heard many times, "That all good skiers, ski alike," is probably more true today than ever before. In contrast with this statement, however, is the observation that I also saw a very wide variation in the skill of the instructors present at Vail. 2. There was a general plea for simplicity of teaching and a basic approach to problems in the advanced levels of skiing. There seemed to be a definite trend away from words such as counter rotation, leverage, forward lean, etc., in favor of a more direct description of what the instructor wanted. There was also a general recognition that particularly with this level of instruction there is a need for an approach tailored to the individual needs of the student in lieu of a standardized sequence which is repeated day after day. 3. There was a good deal of emphasis on economy of motion, in particular on a quiet upper body, and qUiet and natural arm positions. It was stressed in the workshops and demonstrations that body motions should only be as required to conform to the terrain and to maintain balance. Again, however, an apparent contradiction was noted. Among the majority of the skiers on the hill, a good deal of upper body motion was noted, particularly a definite and often forced tipping into the turn. This was apparent on the flatter terrain, but noticeably absent on the steeper slopes and among the better skiers. This trend was noted and criticized in the workshops which I attended, and in particular was criticized in the USSA coaches program. An incomplete understanding of the term "anticipation" appears to be responsible for this trend; however, "anticipation" was covered thoroughly and accurately by the FWSIA demonstration team, particularly in the workshops. 4. In moguls the French called it avalement, the Austrians Wellen Technik, and the Canadians compression turns, but in the end it all looked the same; only the approach in teaching these maneuvers differed. It was apparent that the instructor who only has an edge set and up unweighting as his ultimate skill in moguls is not an integral part of advanced skiing today. It was also made apparent that the instructor who thinks avalement is squatting on the back of the skis on every turn also has a lot to learn about advanced skiing. 5. It was also apparent that every association appeared to have its own peculiar "hang-ups." In general, however, I do not feel that the ISlA is as contemporary as the RMSIA, FWSIA, or the PNWSIA in advanced ski teaching. Possibly we did not see a representative cross section of instructors from these other divisions, and possibly we have individuals or even individual ski schools in the ISlA who are well informed on the material presented at Vail and are experienced and successful in teaching these maneuvers. It is my impression from discussions with instructors from these other divisions that we in the ISlA are not teaching this material to the extent which they are. One has to question whether we are not teaching these maneuvers because of a lack of demand on the part of the advanced skiers in our area, or whether our general lack of understanding and awareness of this material is the cause of the lack -1- Introduction to NASIC (cont.) of demand. In other words, its possible that when the advanced skier sees that we are still teaching the same maneuvers in call F today that he learned three years ago, there is little motivation provided for him to return to ski school. 6. It was interesting and enlightening to see in the bio-mechanics seminar and in the forum discussions the amount of knowledge which people now possess about skiing. This is due in part to the number of physicists, psychologists, physiologists, and engineers who have been attracted to and have studied skiing in the past few years. Things we as instructors have argued about, and in many cases continue to argue about, are becoming known and defined today. If we can now find some way to assimilate this information and pass it on to instructors we can then devote our attention to what should be our basic interest, and that is the best methods for teaching these facts to skiers. -2- ---- -- --- SKI MASTERS and The New England Junior Demonstration Team Report by AI Ellis The Eastern contingent was asked by the organizers of the North American Ski Instructors Congress to explain how they teach from the advanced stem christie through the basic parallel. They followed a sequence which brought out nothing significantly new. However, they did show and explain something which needs to be incorporated into Western ski schools--and this is SKI MASTERS, or Style Skiing. As they explained, skiing now has its hot recreational skiers as well as its hot racers. Many recreational skiers do not want to race, but still are bored with skiing the same slopes every day with little challenge. This challenge can be created with SKI MASTERS in which people compete on a stylistic basis. This can be compared with figure skating. In SKI MASTERS the contestant is judged on the basis of style, trick skiing, small jumps, and rhythm. The goal of SKI MASTERS is to have competitions not just in New England as they have had for the past five years, but to have competitions throughout the United States, and eventually the world, and possibly even in Olympic competition. SKI MASTERS is broken into two divisions, junior and senior. From ages 0 to 12 comprise the junior, and from 13 and up comprise the senior. Competition is based on six parts: stem turn, stem christie, parallel christie, wedeln, two free style runs. The first four runs are counted 0 to 10 points, the last two free style runs are worth 0 to 30 points each. The finished forms are based on the American Ski Technique, but anything goes in the free ski runs. More and more they are stressing freedom, beauty, and trick skiing such as Royal Christys and Charlston. However, difficult maneuvers that do not fit harmoniously into the over-all composition of the free style runs receive no extra credit, and may even deduct points if they destroy the aesthetic appearance of the run. In addition to individual competition, there is also team competition. Each area selects a SKI MASTERS team which competes concurrently with the individual competition. The winning team is based on a point system, much like track and field competition. In the East they now have a perpetual trophy which travels with the winning team. As Steve Morrow, Captain of the Eastern Demonstration Team and Coach of the Junior Demonstration Team, has said, "I feel that SKI MASTERS competition is fantastic in the promotion of ski school. MASTERS also fills the gap between the recreational skier and the racer, a competition for those who don't want to race, but are sick of just skiing." Personal Comment: I recommend that ISlA organize, promote, and support SKI MASTERS. Not only will it give the skiing public a specific challenge beyond the parallel turn, but it will also give instructors some zing. How long has it been since you taught the Charlston? -3- Anticipation and Edge Change as Presented by FWSIA Report by Marilyn Shearer and John Jenkins Anticipation in advanced skiing is primarily a state of mind. It means commitment to the maneuver--the decision to go down the hill in order to start the turn. Anticipation should be used in short swing as a continuing of momentum down the hill, the body facing directly down the hill, the lower body moving under it. When anticipation is first being taught to initiate serpentine turns, it is first a positioning of the body in the direction of the intended turn. The ~ovement of anticipation follows in that direction accompanied with a relaxation of the muscles. This causes the upper body to fall into the turn, pulling the knees and lower leg across the skis to change the edges and steer the ski into the new turn. At slow speeds this must be a conscious movement in insure that the turn starts smoothly due to the lack of momentum. At high speeds anticipation is more of a continuing of the body down the hill to insure a smooth flow of motion from one turn to the other. . Anticipation moves the weight toward the front of the ski at the start of the turn to keep the ski on the snow and secure an early bite of the edge to control the turn. It also helps to insure that the weight stays over the skis to maintain balance. -4- Serpentine and Avalement as presented at NASIC Report by Andy and Marilyn Shearer The concepts of serpentine and avalement were presented in many ways throughout the congress as integral parts of advanced skiing. A great similarity is evidenced in these maneuvers as skied by the FWSIA in their edge change and anticipation program, the PNSIA in their presentation of serpentine and avalement, the Canadian Ski Instructors Alliance in their compression turns, the USSA coaches presentation of racing techniques, and the instructors who were trained in the Wellen technique under Professor Kruckenhauser this winter. It was apparent that good skiers allover the world are getting to the same place at nearly the same time with the same objectives--economy of motion, greater control, freedom from an established form, and preference for utility and functionalism in all maneuvers. Serpentine or round turns or S turns are basically carved turns that are started with a relaxation of body muscles, which produces a slight down unweighting, and anticipation, which causes the upper body to fall into the turn and pulls the knees and lower leg across the skis to change the edges. The arc of the turn is completed by an extension of the legs accompanied with angulation to keep the ski carving as continuously as possible. The arc of the turn is controlled by the amount of edge applied to the ski and the rate of extension of the lower leg. Avalement or compression is then a motion of absorption of bumps or moguls to erase the impact of the bump and allow the body to follow a fairly continuous and uninterrupted path down the hill. Here again function is stressed. Avalement is an action for a specific situation. The objective is to allow the ski to follow the terrain with a maximum of ski-snow contact. When meeting a bump, the legs relax and the collapsing of the legs may be accompanied by a "jetting" action of the ski caused by the skier's weight on the tail of the ski at the end of the previous turn in an effort to minimize skidding or slipping. At the same instant that the legs fold, anticipation must be used to insure a quick bite of the edge as the ski tips fall over the mogul. This point was emphasized over and over. If the anticipation does not occur simultaneously with the compression and absorption, the skier will have great difficulty in catching his skis and regaining his balance and control. Squatting on the backs of the skis, causing the skis to squirt out in a pseudo "jet" turn can be a fun play thing, but has almost no utility in advanced skiing, particularly at higher speeds or in difficult moguls. Serpentine and avalement can be used by the recreational skier at moderate speeds and can be accompanied by an edge set to control speed or change direction quickly. The edge is set with the lower leg, then the skier immediately relaxes, the body falls into the turn (anticipation), the edges change, and extension and edging are used to control the turn. The edge should be set whenever the skier feels it necessary, which could be on every turn on a steep moguled slope, or perhaps only once on a moderate slope to facilitate a quick change of direction. The terrain, snow conditions, temperament and objective of the skier, etc. dictate the utilization of all of these maneuvers. And the point was also made that any type of turn is a good one as long as it suits the situation. Mix them up, have fun, function and utility are the criterion--if it works, it's good. This brief summary cannot possibly cover this subject in any depth. The presentations of··theFWSIA and PNSIA followed very closely the material in the book How To Ski the New French Way by Georges Jourbet and Jean Vaurnet, which was translated by a member of the FWSIA team, Sim Thomas, in collaboration with John Fry. For a more detailed explanation, this book is an excellent source. -5- Comparison of the Austrian, French, and Canadian Ski Techniques Report by Roger Roche and Sid Jenson The comparison of the Austrian, French, and Canadian Ski Techniques at the North American Ski Instructors Congress at Vail was not intended to be complete, but rather to explain the latest technical and methodological developments. The French technique was not presented on the hill; rather, an American who attended the French School delivered a short report on the philosophy behind the French thinking. In short he said, all good skiers have the same basic fundamentals in common. There are large stylistic differences. Therefore, methodology and technique must be flexible, must be individual. Adaptation is the key word. The skier and the instructor must adapt to various snow conditions, various areas, various skiers, and various goals. The Austrian System, as now explained, is not the Austrian Ski Technique. There is no such thing as an Austrian, French, or American Ski Technique according to Kruckenhauser. All skiers are skiing basically alike. There is, however, an Austrian teaching system which has an organized methodology. This teaching system has three basic approaches: (1) for the athletic person, (2) for the middle aged and older person, and (3) for the average person. Each program is altered somewhat, but all basically use the snow plow, then slipping exercises, and wide stance to develop parallel skiing ability. The main point that is stressed is flexibility (sound familiar?). Again and again it was stressed, "If it works, use it." For further specifics on the Austrian System, see Mary Clare Upthegrove from Alta who attended the Austrian school this season. The Canadian Technique, unlike the Austrian which stops at parallel skiing, attempts to integrate the ski instructor and the racing coach. The Canadians attempt to develop a continuum from the beginning skier to the international racer. Reflective of this racing influence, the Canadian demonstration team was made up entirely of skiers who had extensive racing experience. Consequently they place a great deal of emphasis on carved, or round, turns, and avoid the stress on slipping as in the Austrian System. Stylistically, the Canadians still carry the hands low and close to the body which results in a high body stance. Technically, they stress economy of motion, with a quiet upper body and flexibility in the legs. The Canadians use less angulation than the Austrians or the Americans, tending to "bank" their turns, which agains shows their racer orientation. Personal Comment: The attitude expressed by the Austrian and French schools of a non-nationalistic, international ski technique is encouraging. Hopefully, the old chauvinistic tendencies will die and the antagonism between countries will pass away. Yet it is hoped that each country will maintain its own personality in skiing. The Austrians certainly have much useful methodology up to parallel. The French and Canadians have much useful information in the advanced stages of skiing. Further study of these schools is certainly in order. -6- The Clif Taylor Graduated Short Ski "Direct-Parallel" Teaching System Report by Sid Jenson In 1959 Clif Taylor originated, designed and produced the first graduated length short skis in 3 foot, 4 foot, and 5 foot lengths. With these he developed the "direct parallel" teaching system. The Taylor method is based on 13 parallel "turning power exercises" that are first taught on 3 foot short skis, and then applied to graduated length skis in 4 foot, 5 foot, 6 foot, and longer sizes. According to Taylor, his system is useful (1) to teach beginners a direct-parallel method immediately; (2) to help intermediate skiers who are having problems making the transition from stem turn, stem christy turn, to parallel turns; and (3) to improve and sharpen the parallel techniques of experts and junior racers. Taylor advocates that all skiers (from beginner to racer) begin on the short skies and move through his 13 parallel turning power exercises to develop a proper parallel technique. These 13 exercises are designed to produce turning power for controlled skiing on any type slope, in any snow condition, from slow to fast speeds. The 13 Taylor "Parallel Turning Power" exercises are presented in six catagories: I. Weight Distribution Exercises--for developing balance on either ski or on both skis equally weighted. (The instructor holds hand of student whenever possible.) 1. Ski down and do a left turn with weight on right ski only. 2. Single turn, left ski only. 3. Alternating turns left and right. II. Turning Power Exercises--for controlling small, medium, or long radius turns. 1. Short turns (foot power) 2. Medium turns (leg power) 3. Long turns (hip power) 4. Turns of all types (combination of foot, leg, and hip power) III. Pivot Point Exercises--initiating turns in varying snow conditions, terrain contour changes, and developing modern turning techniques. 1. Turns on heels of feet. 2. Turns on balls of feet. 3. Turns on toes of feet. IV. Unweighting Exercises--for improving edge release and control. 1. Down unweighting. 2. Up unweighting. V. Controlled Turns Across the Slope Exercise--for developing turning power from a traverse position on steeper slopes. 1. Series of linked garlands across the slope, then completed turn with turns back across the slope. VI. Introduction of Pole Action--for additional turning power with 5 foot skis and longer. 1. Static pole plant. 2. Moving, plant pole with down motion. 3. Turning with pole plant. Taylor feels that short skis of any length (with proper design) are an excellent training aid for any stage skier. He also believes that short skis can also be utilized as a full time "fun" recreation ski for the skier who only skis a few days a year, and also as a "fun" relief for all types of skiers. -7- Clif Taylor Short Ski (cont) Personal Comment: The first time I saw the Taylor System was in 1965. As far as I can remember, the presentation at Vail in 1970 was the same. In five years his system has not changed which indicates the static nature of skiing on short skis. The skier quickly develops his maximum potential on the skis, which is good in that he can do something on skis quickly, but he cannot really develop; thus boredom sets in very quickly. 1 am not convinced that short skis (which have almost no side camber and thus can be turned extremely easily) are the best way to develop parallel skiing. The correlation of short ski technique with long ski technique shows a wide divergence. The extreme twisting which is done on the short skis must be unlearned for the long skis which have much more side and bottom camber. Short skis should only be used for fun, or by persons who presumably will never ski on a long ski (and who can tell who that might be?). Also short skis tend to create bad habits, or cheating, and when one returns to his long skis, he finds that he has difficulty turning them. I certainly would not recommend them for a racer as Mr. Taylor does. However, I am convinced that short skis can be a means of increasing the income of ski schools. Short skis can be part of the razzle-dazzle that people come to ski areas for. It gives them something new to try, something to talk about in the evening, and short skis can get the ladies out of the lodge who really only planned on bridge or reading. One instructor from Loveland Basin, where C1if Taylor has now migrated, said that he hated to teach on the (insert you favorite string of swear words) things, but he felt that by 1980, all ski schools would have some kind of graduated length method. He disliked teaching on them because he did not feel that he could do anything but putsy around, and it ruined his long ski technique. He hates the system, but thinks it works. C1if Taylor himself told me that his system works. Now if his endorsement isn't any good, whose is? As for me and my house, however, I don't mind a shorter ski, but not a short ski. -8- Lower Extremity and Turning Forces George Twardokens, FWSIA Report by Sid Jenson Anatomy and kinesiology are foundations for better understanding of skiing maneuvers, and provide a background in search for new solutions to skiing practitioners. Muscles which produce turning forces in skiing are usually quite dormant; however, appropriate conditioning will produce quick and significant strength increases and improve ability to turn the skis. The instructor should remember that the average, recreational skier is physically ill-prepared to ski either long or hard. Anatomical differences alone in human structure may vary to the pOint that the performance of one skier may never be matched by another, thus neither ability level nor a particular technique should be forced upon a skier by an instructor. Changes in ski techniques are mainly influenced by equipment development. Human structure remains relatively unchanged, although it may gain maximum potenital through training and conditioning. Strength and endurance respond to exercise most quickly; however, there is little gain in range or speed. Thus physical conditioning before skiing will develop stamina, but not skill. It is necessary, therefore, for instructors who have ambitions to teach advanced turns to consider a strong physical conditioning program themselves. Stress should be placed on developing the quadricep muscles, especailly with the advanced techniques used in skiing large mogUls and in racing. Technical advancements in skiing have made "imitation exercises" in which the skier acts with both legs simultaneously obsolete. The action of the lower extremities is independent in most forms of skiing. Equipment developments have radically changed skiing in the past few years, and surely more changes will come. For example, elevated heels, locked hinges, and cast type fillings of modern ski boots are limiting shock absorbtion and range of flex in the ankle joint, thus we see more stress on the knee and hips joints. However, these same boots transmit the turning forces of the lower legs much more effectively to the skis. Summary: One important point that Mr. Twardokens made was that because of different anatomical structures, different equipment, different ability, different motivations, and different opportunities, the ski instructor needs to use a flexible approach in his methodology and technique when teaching. -9- Mechanism of Equilibtiumand Balance John Spindler, Colorado State University, Neuro-Physiology Report by Bob Parker and Sid Jenson The eyes, ears, and neck are the main balance centers of the human body. These three are integrated, and by their coordinated function we maintain balance. If one ear does not work properly (due to a cold for example) the eyes will send signals which the brain will falsely interpret due to a lack of signal from the ear. This in turn will cause the eyes to misinterpret what it sees. The human body works best when it is vertical, and all balance mechanisms attempt to keep the body verticle; but much of skiing is done in something other than a true verticle plane. If a person falls backward, his eyes automatically lower, which sends a signal to the brain, which in turn sends a signal to the muscles. All this causes an involuntary reflex to the muscles which attempt to correct the deviation from the verticle. The beginning student who is leaning backward or forward often cannot fight this automatic reflex. Thus when an instructor tells a student to lean forward, he often cannot do it. Because of tonic neck reflexes, a person with his chin down will tend to bend forward, flexing at the knees and waist. With the chin up, the body will automatically extend. In an attempt to utilize this natural reflex, Russian jumpers wore neck braces which extended their necks hoping to get better aerodynamic pOSitions which in flight. Their jumps, however, were shortened one third because they could not properly flex to prepare for take-off; also they could not flex properly to make soft landings. Therefore, when a skier bends his head forward, he will likely bend too much at the waist which will straighten the ankles. If a skier holds his head upright, he will likely hold his body upright, which will put him in a pOSition to bend his ankles. Anyone who looks at his skis will almost surely ski improperly. Pressure on the soles of the feet cause extensor muscles to act. Correspondingly, when pressure is removed from the feet, the body tends to collapse. The French technique tends to rely heavily on these two body reflexes with avalement and banking on high speed turns. The Austrians in contrast, because of the more curved, angulated pOSition during a turn, place the stress on balance mechanisms located in the eyes, ears, and neck, not in the legs. Personal Comment: The important point the Mr. Spindler was trying to make was that any movement the head makes will send signals to the body muscles. And since the head is the prime regulator of balance, movements should not be made which would send signals to the muscles which would conflict with the desired movement. The head should remain as quiet as possible. Any turning or tipping will probably cause problems. As Bob Autry has said, "The body follows the head." -10- - -------- --- Ski Design Report by Bob Smith In addition to skiing mechanics, the Technical Committee has been investigating some of the new inovations in ski design that affect the recreational skier and the racer. The results of these investigations have been presented in an earlier report and are herein incorporated with some general information presented at a question and answer session on ski design at NASIC. We have looked into five aspects of design currently being implemented in the construction of newer skis. They are: (1) side cut or waisting, (2) torsional rigidity, . (3) uneven flex, (4) cracked edges, and (5) concave bottoms. Side cut or side camber has become an important new facet of ski design brought about with developments to accomodate the use of certain styles which have recently been popularized by the French racers. The techniques produce a quicker, more responsive turn by allowing the skier's weight to shift back from the front of the ski resulting in an avalement or jetting of the skis into the turn, thus allowing the skis to do more work during the turning phase. In order for the skis to be most effective during this type of turn, they have been designed with narrow side cut at the middle of the skis. This design is also known as waisting. Several American ski manufacturers have developed skis this year which use the narrower side cut in order to accomodate the new styles recently popularized. Torsional rigidity, i.e., the flex or twist of the ski about an axis running the length of the ski, has recently become an important parameter of ski design. This facet of construction was brought about with the use of fiberglass and metal components. This newer type of construction has allowed the torsional rigidity or torstional stiffness to be controlled by proper orientation of the metal and fiberglass components within the ski. The general effect of torsional rigidity has been to produce a greater torsional stiffness in racing skis which will twist with less ease, consequently producing more bite and less skidding when sufficient edging and weighting are provided. Less tors .ional rigidity in the softer recreational skis provide a smoother turn which has a larger radius of arc but more skidding. The flex or bottom curvature of a ski has in the past resulted in the skier having to press down with a certain force (weight) in order to place the whole bottom surface in contact with the snow. With the introduction of uneven flex, the skier presses the whole bottom surface on the snow with less force than with the ski with even flex. The uneven flex is produced by constructing the tip and tail of a ski with more camber and less stiffness than the middle of the ski. This allows the ski to flex more freely at the tip and tail resulting in a more rapid placement of the ski flat on the snow, and consequently requiring less energy from the skier The use of uneven flex coupled with varying degrees of torsional rigidity has effectively produced a much more responsive ski. The tip response may be affected through the use of soft torsional stiffness. This results in a ski which better responds and follows the terrain providing a softer ride through the bumps. A stiffer tail reduces tail skidding thus providing the skier with quicker and more postive control during the turning phase. The use of cracked edges has been brought about principally because of the requirements for a ski to retain its desired flex and not be affected by an additional stress member. The use of two continuous steel edges having a different stiffness than the main ski structure obviously produces a different ski flexibility than that originally intended. Hence the use of a discontinous or cracked edge was implemented to alleviate these effects. Some disadvantag~ -11- .,- Ski Design (cont.) poised with this new edge include a marked increase in edge misallignment and maintenance. Some users indicate additional drag is produced because of the discontinuous nature of the edge. A frequent report by purchasers of new skis has been the presence of concaved bottoms or railled edges. This condition is produced because manufacturers release their skis for sale before a proper cooling and curing of the plastic bases has been accomplished. This, coupled with further drastic cooling and mechanical stresses during actual skiing, produces the railled ski. Instructors should be particularly aware of this problem, and should be able to diagnosis its presence on his student's skis. The best method for correcting this problem is a long session of flat filing, and an enlightening word to the ski salesman. -12- 1. S. I. A.
