Guest Blogger: Tips from John Egan, from Sugarbush Resort

In the morning I like to awaken my awareness of balance, and I do this by skiing with my boots unbuckled. Without the advantage of leverage, you can really feel the reaction from the ski when you pressure it. This way, you get a great feel for what the ski can do and how balance, not leverage, will work for you. Most days my boots stay unbuckled all day!
