About a year ago I downloaded the e-book..studied it, did his very straight-forward and easy drills-I love it-it's a great broken snow, bump-technique that looks and feels good.  It's actually a fun way to ski groomers as well with soft balanced finishes to turns.  I've been a narrow-stancer from the get-go so I adapted to his method pretty quickly.

Also, John's instructional and rhetorical style, serves up something new without being dogmatic or aggressively anti-every other approach to skiing (hmmm, now whom am I thinking of here ).

This time of year (warm, sunny, slower-paced, bump-filled, Spring skiing-my favorite, yes, even over Powder days...crazy I know) John's methods really shine and make great sense.

I'd love to take a lesson with him (or one of his main instructors like Chino), and I've thought about the camps (though they seem to be focused on lower level intermediate late baby-boomers struggling to get offpiste...anyone have a vastly different experience??).

Anyway-I'm a fan of the Clendinnen Method-yet another great optional way to turn a ski!
