Max. John also has a great manual out available on line. His bump skiing methods have some primary principals, pole touch signals edge release of uphill  edge by tiping the down hill ski, then control is moved to the down hill big toe edge to drift or float to re-centering on the new uphill edge, (tip and scrape the new uphll edge in) all starting with very upright and relaxed, hips squared and staying with the chest and upper body, compression to effect power to the edges, and next pole plant, skis always connected to the snow, and extenision or JC likes to say, the Kiley stance, arms wide, tall and ready to start the next turn. I have to say there's soooooo much more than this short paragraph can describe, but like you posted for others, if you're truly interested in learing more about the ease to learn, simplicity and effectiveness of what he teaches for bump crud and pow skiing, you can buy the on line manual for $15 I think.

As you are a student of the art of skiing..reading and seeing both principals will at least shed some light on to  the concepts CSM teaches.

From my personal study and application, Clendenin paired with HH....there's no better teaching systems.
