BOOK SUMMARY
We present to you the new edition of this manual from our fund, a must-see reference among mountain skiers. A few years have passed since the appearance of the first edition and current circumstances advised undertaking a profound modernization of it. Although respecting a certain balance between the theoretical and the practical (what is understood is best executed), its author has focused especially on the latter. Topics such as meteorology, avalanches, alpine technique, orientation … are treated in a more functional way; on the other hand, the hard core of the book, the techniques of descent and progression, are even reinforced.
The part that has been thoroughly reviewed is the one related to the material, without a doubt what has evolved the most in the last 10 years. Experts say that the next improvements can only involve small variations on what is already there and it does not seem that they will imply significant changes in the technique.
Theory and practice of mountain skiing will be the definitive manual, essential in the Desnivel catalog and in the library of all skiers in our country.
