	Boston Phoenix - Ski - Mogul skiing (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Mogul skiing - the art of carving turns down a slope that resembles a bowl of lumpy mashed potatoes -- has never been more popular.
		If you're skiing moguls correctly, with your upper body facing downhill as your skis quickly cruise from bump to bump, your knees act as shock absorbers (my former racing coach wore a brace to compensate for the damage).
		Other mogul trails at Burke include Wilderness and Fox's Folly, the latter of which is a double-diamond trail with a ton of snowmaking, located under a chair lift.

	Mogul skiing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Moguls are bumps on a ski slope formed when the mountain is hurt, much like humans gain a bruise or a pimple.
		Mogul skiing is a type of skiing in which the skiier must dodge between large overturned ski chairs and avoid marmots at all costs.
		Many snowboarders believe mogul skiing is for "sissys" and "girly men" that is most likely why they have no friends while "thrashing the gnar" Judging: 25% rifle avoidance, 25% pure power of will, 30% marmott/chairlift curvature, 20% love of the game.

	Mogul Terms
		Release: The body should be in stacked position when the skis make contact with the face of the mogul so that tension can be released in the legs allowing the knees to absorb the mogul.
		The hips and center of mass should always clear the top of the mogul as the tips of the skis punch down the backside of the mogul.
		Skiing through mistakes in training so those mistakes do not paralyze the focus during competition runs.

		DiPiro is a former USSA mogul competitor and his grasp of good bump technique is solid, but do not make the mistake of assuming that his book is only for those who want to ski moguls competitively.
		Subsequent chapters on line choice, skiing regular and irregular bump lines, trough hopping (after absorption and extension the next most important skill to master), maintaining turning rhythm on flat spots, keeping the head and chin up, focusing eyes four to five bumps ahead, and good hand position and poling round out the basics.
		Mogul skiing is a specialty that requires its own technique and teaching methods.

		Most instructors don’t ski the fall line in moguls and don’t teach their students to do so, even though fall-line mogul skiing is attainable for the fit, advanced skier.
		Although most ski schools do offer mogul skiing lessons, you’d be hard pressed to find, at a traditional ski school, an instructor who knows why the narrow, legs-together stance is technically advantageous in the bumps, or why heavy steering can actually be an efficient means of turning in the bumps.
		Because instructors pay a lot of attention to the ways in which alpine racers ski, and almost no attention to the ways in which mogul skiers ski, the mogul skier's absorption and extension movements, which don't exist to any appreciable degree on groomed terrain, are practically unknown to the instructing establishment.

	Freestyle skiing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.tamu.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Freestyle skiing began to develop further throughout the 1960s and into the 1970s, when it was often known as "hot-dogging." The free-form sport had few rules and wasn't without danger; knee injuries became a common phenomenon for professional freestylers.
		Currently (2006) there are two main branches of freestyle skiing: one encompassing the more traditional events of moguls and aerials, and a newer branch often called new school, comprising events such as halfpipe, big air, slopestyle, and skiercross.

		Traverse the moguls, slowly at first, absorbing them by allowing your legs to bend under tension so that as you come off a mogul they automatically spring back into the hollows.
		Remember that as you come off a mogul you must extend your legs back into the trough in order to keep your body at the same level, this will then allow your legs the room they need to retract for the next mogul.
