Review
There is not an author who understands cross-country skiing better. Scott’s experience teaching beginners, writing instructional manuals, guiding in the high country, and coaching seasoned racers allows him to share what would take most skiers more than a lifetime to learn on their own. I wish I had this when I started. ~Craig Panarisi, Director, Stratton Snowsport School and former coach of the PSIA Nordic Team
