First Chair: How the Fundamentals Help with Movement Analysis

Live from National Academy in Big Sky, MT, First Chair catches up with PSIA Alpine team member, Stephan Helfenbein. While the Skills Concept establishes what you need to do with your skis, it doesn’t tell you how to do it or define your technique. The five Alpine Skiing Fundamentals provide best practices for how to apply these skills effectively to maximize your, or your student’s, technique based on constantly changing variables. They bring the Skills Concept to life.
