Jeff Rodger's Top 10 Tips
To Being A World Champion Slalom Skier
1. Good gates – start wide and slow
2. Keep a tight line
3. Lean and lean hard (with the tight line created in #2)
4. If you do #1,2 & 3 you should be wide and early
5. Keep back arm pressure through both wakes
6. Remain firm and yet flexible in your legs
7. Once you know the ski is going to clear the buoy, start looking for the next buoy
8. If you follow #7 your head should remain up
9. Slow the boat down and shorten the rope
10. Have fun – live, laugh and enjoy your family
