Warren Smith Ski Academy Launches 2019 Ski Technique Lab Tour

Warren Smith Ski Academy (WSSA) has announced the return of the Academy’s SKI TECHNIQUE LAB TOUR in partnership with MDV SPORTS.

Now in its 4th year, the workshops include a lecture and explain the 3 Way Lineage (Ski Technique/Ski Biomechanics/Ski Equipment Precision) and why it’s vital for ski technique development and unlocking classic blocks in skier movement patterns.

The ‘6 Way Foundation’ tests will give participants a chance to be assessed by the team and identify their specific movement ranges and what they need to do to either balance out differences between the right and left side of the body or to generally improve range. They will then have enough information to build their own technique development program off the snow and dramatically change their skiing before the winter season starts.

Founder and Director of WSSA, Warren Smith, said: “For this year's tour, we will be covering even more venues across the country at a variety of different stores. Each evening will run for approximately 2 hours and begin at 7pm or 8pm. We then conclude with an open Q&A session - this evening lecture allows keen skiers to hit the ground running ahead of the fast approaching winter season. Hopefully we will be coming to a town close you and you can make it along”.

Andre Austin, an experienced skier from Guernsey, who took part in the Ski Technique Lab tests in autumn 2018 had this to say, “I was really impressed with the presentation at the ski festival last year and decided to take the tests myself to see where my limits may lie. I was shocked to find that the range in my left ankle was dramatically less than my right one. I’ve always struggled with my weight dropping back on my right turn, and this explained why. Before my March ski trip this year, I made sure i worked the calf stretches i was shown by the Academy at least once a day. The results were huge. I felt i could dominate both of my boots in a variety of conditions and noticed i could maintain my flex.”
