Overview

Dan Egan's latest book and free app All-Terrain Skiing II condense Egan's 40 years of ski experience into an approachable guide to help skiers of all abilities take their skills to the next level. The app features video demonstrations and step-by-step instructions for 31 exercises so skiers can master their body mechanics and balance, from powder to ice and all the conditions and terrain in between. Whether you're a beginner or a pro, these resources will help skiers master the skiing mind, find expression in the mountains, and build confidence. App users can purchase the book All Terrain Skiing II for more detail and description and then carry the AST app to the hill to practice. All-Terrain Skiing II is an integrated, self-contained program for beginning, intermediate, and advanced skiers-in other words, anyone who wants to learn to ski better. Lessons are identified with international trail marking symbols: Green Circle for beginners, Blue Square for intermediate, and Black Diamond for expert. In the ATS app, drills are also categorized to help you organize your lessons for quick access. These drills help you make body alignments while in motion, which ultimately increases your efficiency of motion and allows you to ski longer and with more control. The goal is to develop a new awareness of your relationship to gravity in a variety of ski conditions; to dynamically orient and angulate your body to maximize your control and efficiency; and to achieve constant fluid motion. The goal of this program is for skiers to become aware of every aspect of their body positioning in order to expand where and how they ski the mountain. The app will be available for mobile download on both iOS and Androids as All Terrain Skiing (ATS).

All-Terrain Skiing II will revolutionize instructional ski books. In fact, calling this an instructional book seems like the wrong label. Maybe the Skiing Scriptures will do. Or perhaps the Tao of Downhill. -Mike Finkel, Author, and former Skiing magazine contributing editor For more than ten years, skiers from all over the globe have been coming to Big Sky Resort for Dan Egan's Steeps Camps. His unique teaching style keeps guests coming back year after year to ski Big Sky's most iconic runs with Dan. We're thrilled to have Dan call Big Sky home each winter. -Christine Baker, Vice President of Mountain Sports, Big Sky Resort Steeps Camp with Dan Egan was one of the ultimate experiences I have had in my decades of skiing. Dan and his team did a great job meeting people where they were, and no one felt pushed to do anything they did not want to do. I have always loved steep terrain, and I fell in love with Big Sky. The Steeps Camp was transformative, and I will return! -Matt Mandel, California Wow, three days of learning and great skiing. The time and thought Dan has invested in the curriculum, the insights, the coaching, and even the logistics were readily apparent, and I'm grateful for his willingness to pass his experience and excitement on to others. It's a great program, and I'm happy to share that with anyone who'll listen! -Jonathan Bryant I've taken clinics with Dan throughout North America, Europe, and New Zealand. Thanks to him, I finally broke out of my skiing rut. -Eric Foch, Park City, UT For the past twelve years, I have been on the Big Sky Snow Sports staff and have had the pleasure of watching and participating in clinics coached by Dan Egan. When I am asked by my clientele about skiing some of the steep terrain on Lone Peak, I always recommend they attend Dan's Steeps Camp or engage a Mountain Guide who has been trained by Dan. In fact, when I hear the word 'steep, ' I see Dan in my mind's eye! -Mike Ewing PSIA Certified Instructor for 58 years. Author of My Life In Winters
