## What is Ski School Advanced?

Ski School Advanced combines inspirational, professionally produced video ski lessons with cutting-edge movement analysis technology to take your skiing to the next level.

Starting with strong parallel turns the lessons introduce skills to make your skiing more dynamic and adaptable. You'll look at short turns and workshops that introduce key aspects of advanced skiing (carving, bumps, off-piste and powder), starting you on the route to all-mountain expert.

NOTE:
- The audio issues mentioned are only due to the mute settings. Please check your mute switch first or if its an iPad double click the home button and scroll the bottom menu bar from left to right. Look for the silver speaker icon and remove the mute setting. Still not working then give us a shout.

These carefully designed lessons will: 
• Complement on-slope tuition with a qualified instructor 
• Clarify the basics 
• Give you the skills and techniques to tackle different snow conditions 
• Help you explore the entire mountain.

Video recording capabilities (device permitting) allow you to compare your skiing with instructor demos using split screen video analysis. Draw on the screen to highlight points then share on social media.

Keep a diary with the notes facility and then track your progress though your ski history.

Best of all it’s portable and can be used anywhere: 
• In the chalet before a day out 
• As a handy reminder on the lift between runs 
• On the bus, train or plane before heading out to the mountains 

Once purchased, the app goes onto your device with everything included, no further uploads or costly data charges while you’re away. Just grab your phone and hit the slopes. 

Give your skiing the boost it deserves with the Ski School app - your portable ski instructor.

### 5/5 — Taught me how to ski

*2026-03-26, version 3.0*

I’m very thankful for this app as well as the Beginner and Intermediate versions. I had gone skiing several years ago and was to impatient and didn’t want to take the time to get ski lessons. It was horrible, worst thing ever, no fun. This time after going through all three of these apps, for several weeks, just visualizing skiing and going through the motions in my living room, I actually learned all the basics to skiing. Once I got on the mountain I had all the muscle memory and technique down. I actually kept up with and sometimes out-skied my brother-in-law. I highly recommend these apps to anyone.

### 1/5 — Sound had failed

*2026-01-17, version 3.0*

Had this app a few years and found it a great refresher however it now appears to be broken.   Red banner at bottom of videos and no sound as noted by other users.

### 1/5 — No sound on the video

*2021-11-24, version 3.0*

Good advice if you can lipread! The audio isn’t working at so pointless watching the videos at all.

### 5/5 — Last but best

*2020-09-20, version 3.0*

This last app has helped me with the finesse of my skiing. I highly recommend all three apps regardless of you ability as there are pointers for you at all levels.

### 2/5 — Works poorly on current OS

*2020-02-23, version 3.0*

The app will only play one video then crashes. You have to restart. Additionally the powder video is actually the crud video. This was mentioned by someone else 3 years ago but hasn’t been updated. The videos themselves are quite helpful but can be found for free on YouTube.

### 3/5 — Red screen and hang

*2020-02-12, version 3.0*

Seems to hang with red background when
1. Play a video
2. Press done
3. Select a different video

### 1/5 — Doesn’t seem to work on iPhone 11 latest iOS

*2020-01-11, version 3.0*

The sound doesn’t work and when you watch a second video you just get a red screen.

### 1/5 — No sound

*2019-12-27, version 3.0*

Paid 4,99 but the video has no sound. Not very useful. Other versions have been fine
Update Dec 2019   - reinstalled multiple times an still no sound. No response from developer so advise you don’t download. Shame as these are good videos when watched on you tube

### 5/5 — Great - Just make sure you’ve unmuted your phone

*2019-01-14, version 3.0*

Unlike most other apps, if you’ve toggled your phone to silent/vibrate, the audio will not play. Simple fix. Great apps and teaching videos from these folks.

### 5/5 — Ski instructor in your pocket

*2019-01-08, version 3.0*

Found this guide brilliant when learning to ski , & now to go back to whenever needed
Well worth the money
