Brand New! West Coast Slalom Visual Training Video

Take your Slalom training to the next level with focused mental practice.
Use the power of your mind to change and improve your slalom technique.
Improve your skiing faster and easier through Visualization Training...

This West Coast Slalom Visualization Training is a natural next step to Mike Suyderhoud’s ground breaking West Coast Slalom Advanced DVD. This training features the smooth and fluid West Coast Slalom technique of Terry Winter as a model. The DVD is designed to be a regular part of your weekly training regimen. Based on the psychological concept of modeling and incorporating the Shortcut Method visualization training, the DVD will help you improve your technique through neuromuscular patterning. By following the simple, yet effective outline for focused mental practice your body’s own mechanism for creating movement will help you change and improve your slalom technique. Listening to your favorite music while viewing the visualization sequences makes this an enjoyable process. It also creates an auditory link between the images on the DVD and the music.

What this IS:
• A very simple but extremely effective TOOL for using your own body’s neuromuscular mechanism to improve or refine your slalom technique.
• A right brain based process for teaching the skill of visualizing and FEELING the movement pattern being modeled.

What this is NOT:
• A detailed analytical evaluation or study of technique or parts of technique (this was covered quite well in the West Coast Slalom Advanced DVD).
• An entertainment film.
• A left brain based cognitive analysis of movement.

How does this work?
This DVD tool uses the psychological concept of modeling as well as neuromuscular patterning to accelerate an athlete’s skill acquisition and refinement. The brain cannot tell the difference between focused mental practice and actual physical practice of an athletic skill set. Because of the highly repetitious nature of the images on the DVD, an athlete can get many more reps of a skill in a very short period of time. Watching Terry Winter’s West Coast technique gives your nervous system a smooth and efficient model for establishing new neuromuscular templates. The change in your technique will happen when you become an active participant in your visualization sessions. Learning to feel what the model is doing is the skill that makes this process work.

Why is music important?
Listening to your favorite music assists the process in two ways:
1. It activates the right side of your brain where movement control is centered,
2. It puts you in a relaxed and receptive state for viewing the images on the screen.

Why are there only two turns in the visualization sequence?
When an athlete performs a skill, it is nearly impossible to exactly duplicate the same movement sequence or technique. By using one example of a right turn and a left turn, your nervous system has a single model on which to focus and base the formation of new neuromuscular templates or movement patterns.
