Members of the Coors Colorado Pro Tour and World Pro Skiing attended the CPT sponsored session and the fastest times were constantly exchanged among participants. The course quickly rutted out from the aggressive and determined racing and the pros lived up to their status by riding them out.

We look forward to nine good days of training in all three disciplines," (GS, SL, Downhill). XOU CAN DO IT KLISTERS Klister wax conditions will often offer very enjoyable skiing. However, How-ever, handling the gooey stuff is almost al-most universally dreaded. This need not be if you follow these simple rules. 1) Apply the klister in a warm room where the wax, the ski, and your hands are warm. If a warm room is not handy, you must heat the klister tube and ski bottom with a propane torch or the like before applying the wax. 2) When applying klister, hold the tube as in the photo, squeeze it you CAU BO IT CHECK YOUR WEIGHTING If you're a beginner trying to master basic wedge turns you may be making the mistake mis-take of leaning inside your turns. You may feel you are increasing your turning power by throwing your upper body toward the center of the turn. In actuality, moving the upper body toward the center of the turn encourages a stiff outside leg and reduces a skier's ability to steer the outside out-side ski. Weighting and steering the outside ski are important skills needed for parallel skiing, so it's important to nip this "leaning-in" habit right away. To check your stance in turns, ski through a real or imagined single-pole slalom with poles set in a straight line down the hill. Rounding each turn, check the position of your upper body. If you can feel your shoulders tipped in toward the pole, stop and assume the proper stance. When you are able to feel your upper body weight shifted away from the pole so that you are weighting the outside ski, steering your turns will become easy. . i- ; . v Reprinted with permission of Ski Maqamie Technical assistance provided by Professional Ski Instructors of America.
