Show DAVIS REFLEX JOURNAL, DECEMBER 1 2, 1 984 m Layton Kiwanis: Skiing Davis Human Services Gains Three New Vans The Layton Kiwanis Club meeting at the Valley View Country Club for their regular Saturday breakfast meeting on Dec. 8 and heard Howard Adams, professional ski instructor, speak on the ski . industry. LAST YEAR the ski industry brought $100 million of tourist revenues into the state of Utah. This does not include the effect that the industry has on the real estate industry, nor does it include the other ski related manufacturing industries that operate in this state. Mr. Adams is a ski instructor at Snow Basin. The rate for private lessons is r. Group lessons are popular and spread the cost somewhat among the class. Ski instruction is generally unified and taught by similar methods nation-widThis program is largely the result of the efforts of pioneer ski eductors such as Earl Miller of Ogden and Alf $24-hou- e. ' Eugen of Salt Lake City. Ski students are classified according to skill levels ranging from beginner to expert. THE SKILLS which instructors concentrate on are different at each skill level. A beginner can usually only concentrate on one or at most two skills at one time. After balance and basic edging become reflex skills, the student can advance to concentration on other more technical skills. Up through the 1940s skis were primative wooden slats without metal edges. In the 1950s manufacturers began to add metal edges and later on, plastic bottoms. Later on, combinations of materials were sandwiched together using metals, wood and various plastic laminates. Scientific design principles have been used in ski design, primarily for design of competition skis. These principles have then CHURCH in recreation skis. RESEARCH has resulted in control of vibration, torsional flex and been utilized surface friction. Great advances have also been made in tehnologies for design and manufacturing of bindings and boots. These devices now take advantage of the laws of physics to permit optimum performance along with skier safety. The cost of equipment is relatively high, especially for advanced and competition skiers. Sales and ski swaps offer oppor-tuntie- s for finding good equipment at very reasonable prices. One of the best sources is the annual Park City ski swap. To get the best deals you need to be there by 8:30 a.m. THE SNOW Basin resort has been bought by Earl Holding a California businessman who also owns the Sun Valley Resort. Much tightening up of procedures is being instituted there to increase revenue from the operation. The average revenue per skier will be increased to about $10. In the past, under prior owners, too many free passes were given out. The new owners of Snow Basin have acquired the Trappers Loop area and plans are underway to add 7,500 acres to the resort. Of this will actually be about one-thir- d Full development of the Trappers Loop area cannot proceed, however, until the Trappers Loop Road becomes a reality, however. ski-abl- e.
