Gary, "they all have PSIA foundations" this statement is not correct. Harald Harb was taught to ski by his father in Austria and then later in Canada. Other than what his father taught him as a boy, he didn't have a ski lesson again until he got on the canadian ski team, and then worked with coaches on the team. To say that he has PSIA fundations is far from the truth. Harald was a demo team member for the PSIA, and that lasted for a few seasons. He was adamant that the organization needed to shift the way that they teach. After an extended battle, he left, formed Harbskisystems, and the PSIA still tecahes the wedge and the stem christie.
