Summary: Great technique, but could be simpler.
Review: Harold Harb is a pioneer in ski instruction and his PMTS system will have you skiing like you never have before. His form is very inspiring, and you won't be able to wait to get on the slopes to try out his lessons. However, his video suffers much the same problem as his book(s)-- his technique is ingeniusly simple, but his explanations are highly technical, not organized to its best, and confusing. The names given to each movement tend to be somewhat academic, and any claim that these lessons will work for the first time skier may be a stretch. I'd say this is a a great video for the intermediate at best-- I got this video to make better sense of his book of the same name. I've learned his technique from an instructor, though, and this video makes a great refresher to what I learned that day.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very good for second season
Review: This is a great DVD for those who wants to stop skiing with "wedge" and "snowplough" all the time.

The method is very simple to understand. Seeing it in a video makes a lot easier than reading about it.

I "test" the method recently, and YES that works great. I was capable to start skiing parallel almost immediatly. Of course took some time to improve, but the results came fast.

I could actually think about what I was doing while skiing, remembering the lessons on the DVD. That gave me the sense of practicing the theory.

Only thing that I missed a bit is a lesson explaining a way to STOP doing wedges and trust in the "Phanton Movement". I guess this part was quite overlooked.

Well..worked for me. I am skiing a LOT better.
