Technical Coordin,ting C9mmi~tee Rocky Mountain Ski Instructors·A.sociation The Basic Principles and Final Forms ot The American Ski Techniqqe The Final Forms at the A.erican Ski Technique are based upon seven Basic Principles. In order to develop a unitorm'demonstration of the Final Forms, there must nece.sarily be a unitorm understanding of the Basic Principle.. All a •• ic Principle. do not apply to all Finished Forms, nor are they equally important in the proPQr execu­tion ot the.e ~or... Natural Position is the only principle t~t applies to all Final Forms. Basic PrinCiples - American Ski Technique 1. Natural Position. The primary indication of natural position on skis is that the body be in perfect balance, supported by the bone structure ot the 00411 J:elQ'X' than by muscular effort. All parts of the body must be able to efficiently carry out their skiing ,function.. All joint. should be flexed and in a neutral position, that is to .ay, they should always be capable of either flexing more or ot extending. The hands and arms mU,st be carried in such a manner that they can readily assist balance and be used to plant the poles efficiently. ~hen the skier is in a traverse, orin the process of turning, the necessity to tran.fer weight and edge the .kis .akes angulation a require.ent of natural position. Angulation in turn .ake. it nee •••• r' and natuz.1 to ••• u.. • 80derate re­verse position with the hips and shoulder. 2. Forward Lean. Forward lean may indicate si.ply a body position in which the center of gravity ot the skier is ahead of the feet. The application of forward lean as a basic prinCiple, however, can not be quite this simple. rhe correct application of the forward lean principle in skiing is in regard to forward motion and acceleration. In initiating forward motion, or in crossing the fall 'line in the execution ot a turn, accelera­tion is involved. It i. in anticipation of, and compensation for, acceleration that the .kier .ust use forward l.an, thus keeping ~,~ ---- '~"'li\¥t4iij?

Since forward lean .pplies only where acceleration i. lnYolved, it is implied that a r.v.r.e application of this principle aust be applied to situations involving deceleration. 3. Angulation. ADgUlation i. the .. an. by which tb. skier con­trols the edging of his skis and the distribution ot his weight, two of the essential factors in skiing. In a traverse or in a turn, the ski.r l.ans uphill or to the inside of the turn with his lower body causing the skis to edge. At the same time, he leans downhill or to the outside of the turn with his upper body, keeping his weight over the downhill or outside .ki. 4. Weipt kant_, •. 'tM Mati .9f tran.ter of weight fro. ski to ski has always been a basic turning torce in .kttng and is therefore a basie principle of any ski technique. When a ski is edged and displaced at an angle to the ski.r's direction of travel, as in the snowplow or the stem, transfer ot weight to that ski cau.es resistance trom the side and the skier's forward motion to become aD .ff.ctive turning torce. Weight shift is therefore the primary turning force in snowplow and st •• turns. In our techniqu., weight transfer is accomplish.d by change in body position; by angling the upper body over th. ski to which we want to transfer weight. 5. Up UnweiQhting. A quick extension of the skier's body up­ward results in a light.ning of the skis and a r.duction in the resistance between the skis and the snow. Turning power applied during the unweighting is therefore more eff.ctive. Unweighting starts on the up aotion a. soon a. the ski.r's inertia has been initially overcome. The skis will be lightest at the apex of the up, and the unweighting will continue into the down motion. Unweighting by up motion is desirable because it is coapatible with the n.tur.l down-up-down rhythm of skiing. By reducing .ngulation, th. up .otion .lso results in a r.l •••• ot .dg. and natur.l edge change in the proper relation to the turning of the ski •• ------~~----------- -' a..ic Principle.

Matterhorn Ski School - Trevor G. Goodman, Vice President, I,;ammoth r,;ountain Inn, Corp., Jljichael P. Stein, Consultant on Business Development. Introduction: Bill Lash: . , Today \oJ'e will study the make up, the problems and opportunities of "The Matterhorn Ski School." The method of study will be to consider this as a case histor,Y of a specific ski school operation. All of us will participate in the exercise, answerinr, questions and putting forth sugf,estions so that we will end up with many uneful facts, ideas and a better understanding of the business of the ski school business. Our moderators of this session will be Trev Goodman and r·like Stein, who set the stage for this kind of approach last year at jijammoth r'Jountain Convention. You will recall that they established the fact that skiing, as an industry, is up against very tough competition to get the time and money of prospective devotees t( the sport. Now within the ski world itself ••• they clearly defined what the objectives of the Ski School Directors and Instructors are • • • and I) to encourage skiers to take lessons; II) to get skiers who do take lessons to continue with instruction; III) to get those who once took lessons to return for more; IV) to perform in a manner which helps get more recognition for qualified instructors. The operators of "The I:atterhorn Ski School" recognize these factors and are attemj ing to chart their course for the future. Therefore, let us analyze this case to­gether • • • -1- "I'Jatterhorn t S make up 1S o T~aChing • Selling • J'Janagement TEACHING SELLING What kinds of activities and people does each comprise? Teaching (Area 1) Instructors for beginners, int!"rmediates, advanced. For adults, for children Supervisors Director Sellin~ (Area 2) f'icket Sellers Cashier Instructors (who double --;;n promotion) Advertis1E,g Promotion Financial - bookkeeping, banking, budgets, payroll, accounts payable. Administrati~ - personnel, hiring, scheduling, insurance, maintenance, contracts, plan-ning. Public Relations A(lv~rtini~ ,P;, PJ'()TlIf)tion How does I,it. r,latterhorn Ski School differ from most manufacturing businesses? (Since it doesn't manufacture anythi'ng but rather •.• provides a service on a person-to­person basis). What about Variable Expenses? (fewer, almost Illl) Fixed Expens'es, and Overhead are a more important faotor in running "~Jatterhorn". Hhat happens when volume, or the number of people who want lessons increases? (Very often the existing staff of the school will need to be supplemented with new, (II' part-time instructors. Except in special circumstances the cost of providing instruc­tors for these additional people may be almost as high as the cost of teaching the original group of students)! There are many limi ti!:£: factor,~ • • • to just ho\"; much the ski instructors can handle, due to number of daylight hours, operating hours of lifts, uphill lift capaci t,y, num­ber of pupils which can be effectively taught in a class, as well as problems of ter­rain, space, and weather conditions. Thus it behooves "I,:atterhorn" to maximize its organization, techniques and methods of operation in order to offset the oonstraints posed by these elements. Let us list all the points to check and let's go about it in an orderly manner - ex­ploring Area I - "Teaching" first. ';[hat could be done to reduce costs and increaG~ profi LLb1 1 i t.v? The operating facts, or dollars and cents facts, about the "Teaching" area are: ~Jatterhorn r;ave 20,800 lessons at an aver:1,'':~ price p('tr 1 ~c~Gon of $3.60, for a gross income of S{4,b80.00 (20 weeko). -2- The 10 full time instructors received $500000 per month, the 10 extra ioJeekend instructors are paid hourly - wha t arnoun ts to $200.00 per month. Total for five months - 335,000.00. The Ski School Director received a total of $800.00 per month for 9 months, or $7,200.00. lVi th these costs (plus 0 thers tInt \~e '11 rov 1 cw In tor), wo find that on weekends and peak periods, it costs ~;atterhorn $1.55 per pupil, however, at the other times of the season when l.iatterhorn gives only about 80 pupils per week, the cost rises to $3.95 per pupilc What are some of the al ternatives then that exj_st? Operate only durjng busy part of season. (no, f:jatterhorn would endanger even ltD busy-time bunincDfJ.) Reduce number of instructors in less-busy time:~. (This is no incentive to get and keep good instructors for the season. ) Charge more durlng less-busy times. (Hardly seems logical-, should be cheaper in the eyes of public.) Fewer classes, with more in each class. (Only causes dissatisfied customers, especially since many mid-·,veek and non-peak period pupils corne just for tho reason to get smaller classes nnd bettcr instruction.) Cheaper instructors. (No answer at all, makes customers unhappy, and demand for lessons declines which just aggravates the problem of scheduling efficient operations.) Go all out to satisfy present customers, in order to influence him to come baCk for more. Doesn 1 t cost one bit more to give a really good lesson and in the long run results can be substantially improved. Over the course of a season, it cost s Matterhorn $56,550.00 to provide 20,800 lessons for an average cost of $2.71 per lesson and an average profit of $.89·, A dissatisfied customer comes once and Katterhorn only clears about $.89 from him. But a satisfied, and gratified, customer comes several times (let's say t h rep t i rnp n ). Sf) 11:1 t. t,,, dw rn C2..:.::::::_L'-!......'!,':2 !2.:!-!.:.!:!, 1~~.!2J...:L&:!..!!.!.!.: because he tells his frlends and :~~c oven tond~l to lcn{;then the bus~ season for l~ssons ..• all at no extra cost. Attracting new business means more profit (up to :1 cert.:1in point. when extra business, dependlnf," \11181'e t.ha t extr;). busineuD come~3 from, can cost more than it is Vlorth)" During the busy period, the school profits by $2.05 pc>r pupil, but on the other hand, it -3- :; loses 35¢ per pupil during the balance of the season. (Hhen directly allocat.ing all costs). During the weekends of the peak season Matterhorn could make money if a part-,t.ime inst­ructor oan handle 62 additional students wh0m the school other­wise counldn't handle, This, however, would not be feasible during the non-peak part of the season when the permanent ctaff could still handle more students themselve,Jo On the basis of J.'!atterhorn' s arl thmetic, a part-time instructor earning $200.00 per month, for five months (plus insurance, etc.) should teach 310 students to pay for himself. Six weekends at two classes of ten per day; the maximum number of pupils he could handle \V'ould be 240 • 70 students or $252.00 short of break even. On the other hand - if I'latterhorn managed to increase businesG during the rest of the season, when classes operate well below capacity, the results would be startling. If the school man­aged to bring in just one extra pupil for each class dUl'ing this time, it would have an additional 2,520 pupils for an extra $8,270.00 in profit. Since the ~latterhorn averaged only 4.5 pupils per class it could increase its profit by over five times that $8,270.00 before it would have to add more instructors. In other words, a lot of..,Erofit can be made from better scheduling and fuller resource utilizatio~. At Matterhorn, the subject of segregatinG classes so that max-' imum numbers and comparable abilities are matched up is a varying and almost hopeless tasko The easiest way would be to hold back some and push ahead others in order to always maximize the size of classo HOI'1ever, again \'1e_ run counter to the long term objectives of really satisfying customers so that they will corne back for more and tell their friends - tho~~o :11'0 pl'ofi tablol In fact, it's like building compound interest at the bank. Object - I. - get skiers to take lessons. Object II. - get those \"lho take lessons to continue taking. Let's look at three ski schools and see what h&ppens to the 100 new students that each attracts per year, for a period of five years. School A - students take only one lesson and quit or GO else\-.Jhere, (don't Get much satisfaction). " A" (Year) 1 2 _2- _L -2_ -'r-ot-a-l New Students 100 100 100 100 100 'jOO Continuing Students 0 0 0 0 0 0 Total 100 100 100 100 100 500 -4- School "B" - retains 20~ of its students who come back for additional lessons each year. (encouraged and satisfied). "B" (Year) I 2 New Students 100 100 Continue from Yr. 1 20 Continue from Yr. 2 Continue from Yr, 3 Continue from Yr. 4 Total: 100 120 100 100 20 20 20 20 20 1110 160 100 20 20 20 20 180 Total 500 80 60 40 20 700 School "c" - offers better instruction, or has more interesting or challenging inatruction beo.:l.use )O/:~) of ito llCl-J G tudell to 1'0 tUI'Il oaoh yonI' for, at least, another lesson. "C" (Year) 1 2 NeVI Students 100 100 Continue from Yr. 1 so Continue from Yr. 2 Continue from Yr. 3 Continue from Yr. 4 Total: 100 150 _3_ 100 100 SO SO 50 50 50 200 250 100 SO SO SO -2Q 300 Total 500 200 150 100 1100 Increasing the repeat rate from 3010 to 5010 resulted in a 57% increase in total business over the five years. If a school got all its original 100 new students to come back for five years, it would have 1500 students. Similarly - if Katterhorn not only decides to entice students back e~ch year, but makes ita pol icy to get each Lltutient to com(~ lJ:lCk two, 1,111'00, 01' rOll I' t 1111<'" annually, it would get even larger and quicker increases in business than we've just illustrated. So, to repeat - 01ltinClcd CU:JtOlllOl'U who ;tl'(~ auLLvnly O!)()()uI'llgod to UOIIIIl llwl!, /11"\ the best catalysts for growth and profits. i-lhat other pertinent and worthwhile factors could be explored by Matterhorn in this teaching area? Can "American Ski Technique" not be a major theme for exploitation? - etc. -)- --_ ... _--_._. vlhat about- Atti tude of Director .:md lnstructors - help yourself rn()~; t by helping the skier learn better and mere enjoyably - to siltisfy customers is more profitable beciluse they also will influence others to go to ski school. You must make an awful lot more profit from a dissatisfied customer than you do from a satisfied customer to come out in the end. Creating satisfied customers must be a constilnt goal of the school • and this comes about through the Instructor tilking PRIDE in hi s work •• 0 Poster •• " and seeing this (see il Pro Poster) .turn into this (photo accomplished skier). The total wages of the Director and ten Instructors of natterhorn are il fixed expense. One economic law says the cost of any resource (in this case, the instructors) is directl~ated_ to the income i~nerates. In other words • • • the better job that is done the more the Instructors are worth. Another economic law says that no one resource is vlOrth so much that it will bankrupt the business. The Instructor canlt get paid what the Ski School doesn't have. Therefore, the owner, director, and instructor"s interests ~l'e intinntely related. The Instructor is the ke,-y to r·iatterhorn' s profi tilbili ty and to his own opportunitles for gaining more reco:p1ition. f.1atterhorn must, therefore, viei" this subject seriously and explore every means of developing incentives for the director and instructors. Being a ski school instructor need not be viewed as a means to an end, whereby one can have fun in the winter to tide oneself over 'til the summer job rolls around again. It is Eossible for ski instruction to be an honest, challenging, and re'.-rarding career demanding Erofessional training, eXEerience, attitudes I and aEEroach. At the r.1ammoth J,;ountain Conference, we pointed out that ski schools and instruction, while not the whole ball of Vlax by any means, is the single most influential factor in the groVlth and development of the ski industry_ Let us list all possible thoughts, ideas, or methods of providing workable in­centives for instructors From audience - - salary plus .:0 of each commission on all new instructor's name.;-­Gtudent's feeo (over and above privates) business (Object In new customers) (tag:::J with commission on re~at business (Object II. commission on adv~~ce business. retain pupils) profit sharing plan (~ of gross by week or month). expense alloVlance for after hour activities (developing arrangement with hotels, etc. -6- business). r :on, tor .$ - commissions for lessons (Object _. commi ssions for regain pupIl s) etc" keeping people in class or continuinG beyond three II. - retain pupi18). getting b~ck those who once took lessons (object III - (more area participation). These may seem impractical and far fetched, but we wouldn:t expect to sell shirts, machlne tools, or canned goods without providing some incentives for the salesmen so they could directly realize some of the fruits of their l-lOrk. (Law of supply and demand makes practical achievement of these goals doubtful 0 For everyone instruc tors job there are others waiting. This increases the need to \.,iden the gap be tvleen those \vho are and those who would like to be instructors - through certification, high quality inst­ruction, and salesmanship.) Now - \ve can look at Area 2- "Selling" activities to see where costs can be re­duced and on t.he other hand where I-latterhorn could invest in order to increase profits. - one ticket taker and a bookkeeper, who doubles in office administration round out 1,la tterhorn' s staff. They recelve $450.00 and $500.00 per month respectively for a total of $4,750000. Total personnel costs come to $46,950.00 for the year. - Travel and promotion during and between seasons cost $1,800000 and is aimed at attracting or developinr, an 1n('1'(>ar1('c1 runollnt of buninonn. r,jatterhorn should examine its expendi turc~s LlY1U tr.y to mako its present­ation more appealing by attending shows, exhibits, ski swaps, and club meetings where the time expended \.,ill generate a greater number of lesson takers. Or re-arrange the schedule of promotional activities to reach more people or reach them when they are most susceptible to taking lessons. Can i'ie jot down ideas in the promotional area, such as: - having one of the larger hoteL; hold a "kocL the PI'Of} Nigh!." who}'(:? the Matterhorn instructors would be invitEd over to meet the f,Ue~ts at a punch party - here they could line up daily lessons au well as privates ••• (as well as dates!). - could Matterhorn designate a team to visit high schools in October .:md November and line up a season of pre·,booked lessons? These illu~irate where effort coulcl be expended on large r numbers and at a time when people are seriously thinking of taking lessons. - ivh:1t about promotional efforts to Get more Il1ill"\~eek aJhl nOll-bUG.)' t1l1:won business? - Instructors have to conslder themselves as salesmen just as much as ··7- $ teachers at Natterhorn~ first of all they sell themselves through their deport­ment, their manner of teC1chlu&, and their bUrf'lng deslre to satisfy the customero - they sell the idea of increasing fun with increasing skiing proficiency through these lessons and connng back for more as neededo - they invite pl30ple to:.:;]:e lessons, the.} <J.chnlly suCgest the.! neeri to come back for friars - an1 tell their student:;; trF-'.t thsy '''ant them back. - this way is a sure 'tray -l:c help profi tablluy because each lnstructor is performing a vltal part ln helping the school reach its objectives ¥l, 2, and 3 and in so dOlng~ he dces the most for 1.11e ski school industry and himself in achieving objectlve #4.

O.L, what is a plan? HO'tl can yeu wr~ +e a ~od plan- so that is is not a 10ng-w1nded tome or a ora shingly boring pile of statistics? For the answer, let 1 s staTt in -r;h a simple dlflni +'lon: Basically a good plan lS just three things= 1. Identifica~lon of problems 0 a clear Identification, portrayal, and explanaticn of -the currently impc,r+ant problems and opportunlt1es of your ski-school bus1ness. 2.

It will be seen that this check list places strong emphasis on competitive ques' This is because th~ comEetitive aspects of business (all business, including th lesson business) a~pears to be gettIng stronger and stronger. In most instance you now face competitive factors which are large, strong, and financially vigor other areas, other countries, ether sports, other things that people do rather} ski and take lessons. If, as a ski schoGI operator or instructor, you do not .E.:! to compete, then you will not grow according to the opportunities. ~oach and Backgrcund Ques~ions 1. How large (er small) is"the SkI lesson business within the total skiing \1orld? In number of lessons and/or dollars, how often (or how much) are lessons taken by the skiing public? Is this growin~ ~hrinking and a.:L what_Eate in relation tc the annual rate of grow-th of the number cf skiers? - HO'd we propose that PSIA. get its members to submi t figures so that a natlonal bench mark may be estab­lished, for each to use in step 2. 2. ~hat :Jh;:t7·c_~.lE!~-.l.2.!:2.L..Q~l~~~:':2!l~~_iu ,YOll!' ucllOol gettInG? Naturally, this must apply to a certain sectiona.l area that you consider as your competitive area., i.E. "Snow Summi iff in Southern California, because of its highly organized and aggressive operation can almost set its own boundaries of operation. It has a better school and hence does more business (despite relatively unfavcrable snow conditions) than schools located in far better areas. However, using "Snow Summit" as an example, it 'dould seem importan1 to knoh' if they were gaining or losing their shar", particularl;') as Dlg a[,{':resf,ive competition can de­velop over nlght, 3. What is the prlncipal reason fer the existence of ski schcols and ski lessons? Is it principally a servIce of necessIty that people seek out on a loglcal baSIS for the help it provides? i.e. (dental care), or is it principally a service of enjoyment that people tend to seek emotion­ally so that they aren't too mental or loglcal about it? (e.g. taking a steam bath), Or is it a combinatlon of the hlO " •• a servIce of both necessity and enjoyment that some skiers seek on both a logical and an elT)otional ba.sis? 4. What are the idiosyncrasies of this kind of business? fa) Tn seasonabili ty (rnonthly)? It peaks heavil.Y? Heekend vs ,.-mid-week? Or conversely, could it be extended or virtually a year-round business! in one form or another for at least some of the members of the ski school? -9- (b) In the geographical area of operations? Does the existing or the promising potential market vary sharply? Could your area and school offer a very dramatic enticement to further away places (as "Sun Valley" does so successfully wi th the "Learn to Ski Heeks) or ~)y seriously tackling the transportation and lodginG problem, could you bring in re'.~ularly pre-booked classes from dintCLn I; ci tieD? (c) In the types of people who seek lessons or C~1 reason­ably be expected to participate? Here you seek social and/or economic variations in the opportunity to sell, e.g. approaches to low salary office girls vs. children of well-to-do private school families. (d) In the age, sex, or famil.::::: size of those who seek out lessons, or reasonably can be expected to participate, e.g. more older, well-to-do women take lessons than men and children - alter appeals to up grade the numbers of men and to encourage more children • • • they are the best customers of tomorro\v. (e) In the existing frequency of taking lessons (group and/or private and in the apparent potential frequency? e.g. do most take one or tNO lessons and quit? Those who have taken some lessons, do they come b:lOk for more :ltiv:ltlcc'd tr:ulling? If not, why not? 5. How does your ski school service compare with competition? First of all, for the purpose of this discussion, we 1'1'i11 limi t ourselves to skiing and not bring in the serious factors of trying to compete with the appeals of learning how to sail, scubadive, trap shoot, dance, fly, or whatever •• • • don't forget all of these thlngs plus many more compete for the leisure time and money of your potential customers. O.K., then how do you compare with other ski schools? (a) How does your school compare in quality? sixty-four dollar question to be answered not but also with the opinion of the publico 'l'his is a only technically (b) How do you compare in presentation? In numbers, color, attractiveness, appearance. Are you really visible ••• all the time? Opinion of the public is helpful here. (c) Is your presence known? In other words, do skiers see you and the school immediately? Do people in areas, other than ;your own immediate bailiwick knolv of you? Are you easy to find • is it easy to sign up; find the starting point, ect.? (d) How do you compare in value? Not only or hour, but also in "appeilrilnce of VCLLus," neat, well organized, mature instructor who -10- i.n prier') per Cl:l:lfl (l:emernber that a goes about his job of iing ,'eals . roe 'isure • in a professional manner looks like a better value than a big, boisterous, flamboyant 'follow me li typelnstructor). (e) HOI'; do you and your school compa re in the minds of ski business tra£~12££l2~? Other area oiJerators, Skl school operators, instructors, spc:, rt lnr, Good:} m'tnufac tu 1'01'8 and rc­tClilers all have an influen::e on .Jour business, Is the trade attitude tOlvard your scheol and service more or less favorable than tm'lard your competitors? If a newcomer to skiing in Los Angeles asked HollYI.;ood Spc;rtinG Goods I.;here he should go to learn I.;here would t he dealer recommend - Snow Summit, " I,;ammo-l;h, June, or Sun VaI1e,y? (f) Hmv does your schocl ccmr;are in skier advantages or in exclusive features of diffe ':'enc.;> which either are, or can be made to appear to be, of real value tc the skiing public? Can a weekly Standard Race generate interesT. in extra lessons and hence participate in an mvards party and walk off with a bronze medal? Does thlS also lnstill some desire to take more lessons and win a silver or gold one? (g) lIm, does your sohool compare ln the amount, kinds, and quality of advertisinG uGed· • , currently and evor a period of tlme? Evidence of relative advertising effectiveness should be soughL If you do advertise nationally, sectionally, or locally, (even through local dC::lleI'C.). you should determine the mcst effective appeals - then do more of it. (h) How do you compare in the amount, klnds, and quality of the 'publici ty, and promohonal activity used? This question too should be studied as to areas and evidences of relative effectiveness noucht. I noti,:," ~)ir:;i ;;;nl.,,(>l and hin men in San Franoisco and Los Angeles, I' fTl nu re they havo found this activity to be effective and nc doubt realize just where ski school business can be generatE'd, You may not have the where­with- all to travel as far and wide as thp boys from this venerable spot but you can take a leaf out of their book. 6. Hhat are the Eromotional economics of ycur servlce? \fuat we ire getti: at here is the budget. Based on gross proflt margins, operating costs, overhead and reallstic volume expectations, what appears to be the sound rate of advertising, publicity, and promotional expenditures you can and should'support? \fhat kinds of volum8 increa.s-e-s may be expected with increased promotional effort? How prcfltabl will this business be? Now, there have been key questions of Q:£££~::~£b_~nd_st!:!£.:i., for the putting togeH1 of a good written plan. 2, Share of Buslness ·11-- - 3. Reason for Service 4. Idiosyncrasies 5. Competiticn 6. Economics You must then identify your specific problems and recoGnize your opportunities. Diagnose the problems, and how best to meet them, Prescribe the solutions. Then vital to all of this is to set very specific goals, in each area, or in other words, points along the way which you want to reach, and if you don't make it, to be able to ascertain why you didn't. He at Nt. J.latterhorn have determined that the goals of our school should include the following items - - lengthening the peak period of the teachinG season to weeks. increasing the average class size durinc the rest of the Geauon to having each pupil take an averaee of lessons with us per season. having ----'% o f our pupils return the succeeding year. changing the ratio of skiing capability levels to A ______ ~p intermediate, p advanced. ---/0 beginning, attaining a ___ ;1, - __ -...;J}o balance be t'deen mid-week and \.,.cekenrl business. - increasing the total number of lessons to ,J of all skier da;:;s at the area. maintaining an average class size pupils. increasing total business to lessons per year • profit margins of ./f ___ .....,/0. The achievement of such goals implies several considerations - 1. That we find. out ,.,.here we stand today relatlve to these points. Some of this information 1-Ie have now; some can only be developed over time. 2. That we can"t achieve these Goals overni.r,ht. 'T'hey have to be net with an object date· in mind and 1-lith interim goals. 3. That progress in achieving these goals be continually measured. -12- )t,her , to Ide the on. Some " with 41 4" That '."1e plan all our efforts on a coordinated basis to make sure that our goals are integrated, compatible, and net conflicting and self-defeati; 5. That au.:' goals and plans be practical, objective, and realistic, Once '.-Ie have desc ribed and identified Mt. Latterhorn as it presently exists and h­prepared our l;st of goals. we must thcH eo about the task of seeing how, i.e. by \'lhat means - we can get from here to there. Some of these thines we'll be able tr do immediat.ely, others will have to wait until we have a broader working base, hn", aoquired more experience, know more about the market and ourselves, and are in a stronger financial posltion. " Thus! we can say that there are things we know about and can do right now, others which are a year or so off, and others which involve even more long range plannilli' I'Ti th this in mind, Mt. II;atterhorn Ski School is going to undertake a four year program to strengthen itself by increasing the size of its business, reducing its fluctuations I ma.k::ing more loyal and more steady customers, and increasing the app' of skiing in general and lessons in particular by improving the quality and varie1 of instruction, We have laid out a four year plan based on doing what \'i'e can do now and developin what we'll need in the future so when the tifllf:' COlJ1n:l W()'Jl1J01'0:tcly for' it. Wo have also designed the plan so that everything we do will improve business and profi ts so that any costs that we will incur in pursuit of this plan will be paid for by the benefits of the preceJing step. In other h"ords, it is a self-liquidat· program" OPERATIONS The first year, we will concentrate on reappraising cur organizational set up and teaching structure e01nr, into a little more detail th,'ln we did parl1(H' in t.hin discussion?

These will be especially aimed at advanced skiers, racers, those interested in fun and tricks, problem skiers, cash programs, kiddie schools, package deals, reciprocal arrangements, etc. Thus, each step of this develoEm~rcoess will be built u£on tho~e which~ ceded it. This pyramid or building block approach \Vill result in a stronger and more solid ski school and one whose business will multiply cumulatively in much the ..;ame way as our compound interest examples.

Praise can be honestly applied and often. Opportunity for gradual explanations I~"" i ':.,' f:: Setting an objective for the lesson can be avoided. Explanation can be restricted to each step. Assures understanding as each part is explainod, then skied. Repreating explanations are avoided, fewer words are used. Avoids the initial overwhelming amount of information. Heduces class borodom by keeping them mov ing. Helps to handle kids and adults in same class. Crescendo Type of Class Instructor fits everything together towards end of class. Has class try to ski a plausablc objective, using varied terrain. Can demonstrate how it leads to future skiing. Leaves students eager for next class rather than discouraged. - page seven - TV TRSNDS IN SKI TEACHING A. Changes in Method Classic methods have taught final forms with few closely related exerc lse s in the belief that since the co rrect viay is more effic ient, the student will learn more ea.sily and quickly by insisting on perfect performance. godern method favors the use of any meCJ.ns to get the student skiing and the use of more intermediate exercises before striving for the final form, in the belief that this more gradual indoctrin­ation is more natural, less frustrating and more fun. These additional teaching sequences and this freedom of develop­ment with the understanding that the final form goals are rarely perfected but act as guide post s, is a popular concept o'f ski teaching used in the United states o B. Adaptations of opposing approfcches Ivlost teaching systems have more or less successfully excluded some aspects of skiing, hoping to avoid G.evclopment of possi~le bad habits and to provide short cuts to parallel skiing. The present trend indicates more and more aspects are being taught, hoping to create adaptable and complete skiers at each level rather than those too afraid of bad habits to try off beat skiing, or snow. As a temporary aid, any aspect includ:lng the final form becomes a valuab18 tool in our trade and one th~n8 more the student can accomplish with his skis. The "one co rrec t wa.y" met hod and its Lnpo sed fear s are fading in favor of fun skiing, learning through v&.riety of experience, and trying out opposing approaches to problema at any level. C. Comparing opposites of two classic approaches: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5 .. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. :"all-lino concentration Long turns Hieh speed Linked. turns 'r'otal motion 1'10vl and abstcm control Inside edging 'ilide skis Sven weight 30dy square to skis Banking of body to carve Pole Rotation Upper body turning power Forward lean Up action in edge release Abstem edge set parallels Carving wedeln - Traverse concentration - Sho rt turns - Slow speed - Finished turns - Fixed positions - Sideslip control - h).rallel ed5es - 010 se s~~i s - WoiCht c;"} 1ft - Body counter to skis - Body angulation for carve - No pole - Counter rotation - LOHer lee; turning power - Heel pressure - DOHn motion with edge release - Parallel edge set parallels - Edge set wedeln .. , i'~11 errors in oltilne ' oan 1.
