The Centered Skier mixes elements of sports psychology and Zen Buddhism highlighted by calligraphy by Al Huang.
It became the foundation of approaches taken by the likes of the Sugarbush Ski School. On the Professional Ski Instructors of America reading list, the book had a resurgence when parabolic shaped skis were invented in the mid-1990s, putting carved turns, rather than skidded turns, within reach for recreational skiers.

February 5, 2017 Carved turns feel good, look good, ski faster safer. Zen ski shit. Tiemless classic. I sell it in my book shop. The author used to live her and she asked our book shop to keep the book in print. Love doing it.
