Ron,
Not to be a Gangbanger....... >:D

but you seem to have misconception of what is taught at both HH camps and at resorts.

PSIA is still teaching wedges, which are near impossible to unlearn without tremendous effort. (I stand by and listen every so often).
You are correct, a large majority of resort instructors seem to need to be re-instructed!! They are still teaching entry level skiing appropriate to straight skis.

You have had access to some of the best. Most people don't even know who the best are.

I agree with Jim. The "lifting and tipping" taught by HH is just to lose the "unholy" wedge. They move to just "lightening" and edge management after that.

Gee, that was fun. Time for a cigarette. ;) :D
