Many skiers will describe themselves as “experts,” and then admit, in the same breath, that they “don’t do bumps.” It’s not surprising: Moguls take pride in making you look bad. Whether you’re an occasional bumper looking to smooth and polish your technique, or a total newcomer who has always stuck to the corduroy, SKI Magazine along with PSIA Alpine Team Coach Michael Rogan and pro skier Marcus Caston will give you the confidence and the skills to survive and thrive on terrain where the groomers never go—all while looking good doing it.

More than any other type of terrain, moguls require tactics and techniques that you haven’t had to master for getting down groomed terrain. Our instructors—Professional Ski Instructors of America’s Alpine Team Coach Michael Rogan and pro skier Marcus Caston, will teach you the skills that are specific to skiing bumps well: edging versus skidding, appropriate stance, flexion and extension, how to keep your upper body quiet, and more. We’ll teach you to embrace the bump runs you formerly avoided.
