by KevinRyan (Author)

Synopsis

As a PSIA examiner, I have worked with Kevin on and off the snow for several years. His creativity and knowledge of what works comes through clearly in The Illustrated Guide to Snowboarding . I'd recommend it as a reference to the professional instructor, as well as a how-to for the avid snowboarder and those who wish to be. - J. Randy Price, Member of the PSIA-AASI national demonstration team. As a professional athlete and instructor, working with Kevin and reading his book helped my riding immensely. One of Kevin's principles is straightforward and perfectly applicable for snowboarding, climbing or just about any sport - your mind leads and your body follows. It works! - Robyn Ebersfield, 4-time World Cup rock climbing champion. Never in my thirty-three years of pioneering, shaping and defining the sport of snowboarding was there ever access to material explaining the technical aspects of riding in such an easy to understand manner...This 'encyclopaedia' of snowboarding how-to belongs on the shelf of every ski area, snowboard park and bookstore in the snowbelt. - Paul Graves.
