About the Book

The mogul skiing mechanics and strategies you will learn in this book are the same ones used by the very best competitive mogul skiers in the world. The author, a former competitive mogul skier himself, has spent over 15 years developing and refining the mogul skiing MECHANICS, APPLICATIONS, and PSYCHOLOGY that make up the bulk of this work. The "New Mogul Method" is a systematic approach that Michael Mead developed over many years to bring together these different aspects in real-time. It was developed by a competitive mogul skier for the benefit of competitive mogul skiers, tested and vetted by competitive mogul skiers. It is the most effective, systematic, easy to implement, and reliable mogul skiing strategy there is. "The Invincible Mogul Skier is full of great insights and very specific knowledge. If someone wants to learn to mogul ski, this book is a great resource! Michael and I share a passion for mogul skiing and it was fun sharing my experiences with him. It was a pleasure working with him!" -Bryon Wilson (Olympic Bronze Medalist, Team USA)

About the Author :
Michael "The Mead" Mead, was a highly skilled US mogul skier whose career spanned from 1995-2006. In competition, he was an elite speedster and formidable competitor. Mike also worked as a stunt man for a California-based company for 6-1/2 years, and spent a substantial amount of that time overseas. He uses that knowledge help explain how to manage risk. He is currently a professional engineer and explains many of the mechanics of mogul skiing from an engineering perspective to exacting detail. In short, "The Mead" is a wonderfully diverse person and brings together rare and unique perspectives to help us understand the intricacies of mogul skiing.

Review :
"The Invincible Mogul Skier is full of great insights and very specific knowledge. If someone wants to learn to mogul ski, this book is a great resource! Michael and I share a passion for mogul skiing and it was fun sharing my experiences with him. It was a pleasure working with him!" -Bryon Wilson (Olympic Bronze Medalist, Team USA) "There are three major details I remember from my time skiing with Mike, among many more intricacies. First, Mike's hands-on method of isolating body parts (shoulders, elbows, hips, quads, knees, etc.) on the hill, to put the skier in the ideal aggressive body position, is a method I still use today in my own skiing, as well as when teaching others. Second, the importance of intensity and confidence in jump takeoffs that Mike instilled in me. I'm reminded of a day at A-Basin, in the spring, I finally nailed a takeoff for my "cork 7." And lastly, the push it sometimes takes from an external source to innovate, try something new, and ultimately progress, even if it scares you. Example: Mike pushed us all to try a new trick on the spot...the only front flip I've done in a true mogul course to date. Good memories thinking back on our days ripping (Breckenridge) together. Thank you Mike for your influence and help in my career all those years ago." -Dylan Walczyk (World Cup Medalist, Team USA) "You (are) still one of my favorite coaches. I miss seeing you around. I have wanted this all my life and now I'm ready to secure my spot at this month's World Cup!" -Bruce Perry Jr. (World Cup Skier, Team USA) "Mike is a bit of a Renaissance man." -David Colturi (Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series Event Champion, Team USA) "Mike Mead was more than just a coach to me... He inspired me to find freedom and happiness on and off the slopes. He always encouraged a positive outlook on things... He inspired me to push myself, and to celebrate even the smallest of victories. He was a very fast, aggressive skier and he gave me the secret to not only speed, but to the right attitude as well." -Lindsey Eckhoff (Nor-Am Skier, Ranked 11th place in USA, 2015) "Life begins at the end of your comfort zone, and this could not hold any truer to the teachings of Coach Mike Mead. For me, the most influential step from his process was easily to "scare myself." This is one of the most difficult things to do consciously, but once accomplished, opened me up to a world of possibilities. It taught me that not every crash is season ending and that every victory tastes sweeter when you knew you gave everything you had and a little more. Whether you set out to better a personal best or conquer the skier next to you, the first step is to scare yourself. Mike was the most inspirational yet frustrating coaches I have ever encountered in my time as a Mogul skier. He consistently demanded more of me than I thought physically possible, but I always knew that he would never ask me to attempt anything he didn't think I was capable of. With most coaches they ask you to perform a task they themselves could not complete. However, Mike was not only able to display the skills he was teaching but could break down his process in depth to the point where a basic knowledge of physics would be necessary to fully grasp the lesson. One of which was the concept of the glass plate. It took me years to fully understand what he was asking me to do but once I felt myself getting set on it, I knew I needed to stay stacked and relax my mind and body. Without his coaching I never would have been able to ski at the level I obtained." -Matt Didonato (Holiday Valley Freestyle Team, USA)
