The World's Best skiers
Some recreational coaches debunk the process of studying World Cup athletes, saying, in effect, "Recreational skiers will never ski like World Cup athletes."
True enough: none of us are likely to ski exactly like Maria or Didier or Lindsey or Ted, but we believe there is much to be learned by watching World Cup athletes move upon the snow. They are the best skiers in the world and the notion that nothing in their skiing applies to high-level recreational skiing is, we think, debatable. . . in fact, make that an emphatic "bunk!"
