But please allow landscape mode so that I can watch with AirPlay on tv. ### 5/5 — Helpful *2015-02-28, version 2.0* Helpful aid ### 5/5 — Great videos *2015-02-06, version 2.0* Great high quality videos with excellent sound as well. Clear and easy to follow instructions. Excellent preparation for the real thing. ### 5/5 — Great quality *2015-01-08, version 2.0* I've not been skiing yet but this looks really easy to follow. ### 5/5 — Excellent! *2014-12-04* This App is a must for skiers. Easy to understand and implement - learn at your own pace. The only thing better would be having Darren skiing next to you! ### 5/5 — Great app *2014-02-26, version 2.0* This is really good, great idea, it's coming with me to Austria next week. Thank you. I had a bit of trouble finding it as only appears in AppStore if you select iphone only, shame as works perfect on ipad too. D ### 5/5 — Very good ap *2014-01-01* Easy practical instructions and tips. ### 5/5 — Buy it! *2013-06-30, version 2.0* Just about the best learn to ski app out there. Really well put together and clear, simple advice. ### 5/5 — Top App *2013-03-16* Die ganze "Ski School" Serie ist für mich von hoher Qualität. Alles bestens und anschaulich erklärt. Die Erklärungen halfen mir enorm, meine Skitechnik zu verbessern. Kann jede einzelne App. jeden ambitionierten Skifahrer nur empfehlen. ### 5/5 — Easy to understand *2013-02-10* I loved the app. I am a visual person so watching the instructor was easy for me , rather than some guy just talking the whole time. I already feel more confident. You get out of it what you put into it... I like the ability to watch it as many times as you like, there is no time limit . ### 5/5 — Wow! *2013-01-31, version 2.0* I found these apps by accident whilst preparing for my second ever ski trip. I used then for two weeks prior and in the evenings. My first run was so much better than how I left off at the end of the previous year after only 4 days skiing (ever). They really help link the theory and practice in an easy but effective way to learn. I really cannot recommend them enough. Get them all !!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Theft *2025-03-20* I purchased the app on iPhone 13 Pro Max and started the view the videos only to notice that there’s NO SOUND! I reported a quality issue on Apple and they didn’t respond so I asked for a refund and they refused. Plain and outright theft! ### 1/5 — No Sound *2022-08-21, version 3.1* No Sound I’ve complained couple of times and No reply. No Sound on all ski school school apps..Dissapointed.. ### 1/5 — Absolutely terrible paid £4.49 got nothing *2022-02-19, version 3.1* No sound and black screen. Terrible - no details how to get money back. ### 1/5 — Not all Videos download *2020-01-26* Bought this earlier in the week. Immediately downloaded but could never get all the videos to download/work. Three just show up as a red screen. I wrote the company twice but never heard back. I would recommend not buying and just viewing videos on YouTube. ### 1/5 — Crap *2019-12-28* App keeps closing and the content is weak ### 1/5 — Save your money *2019-01-02* There is NO SOUND on ANY of the videos. Would like my money back. ### 1/5 — Sound doesn’t work *2018-02-20* These videos are great, but the app doesn’t work because there’s no sound. Watch them on you tube instead and don’t waste your $5. ### 1/5 — No Sound on iPhone 5s *2014-02-04, version 2.0* Very disappointed no sound on videos or indeed at all ad I am trying to get my money back. Have contacted developer but not had the courtesy of a reply. ### 1/5 — Skischool *2010-10-24* To expensive . To complicated . No chance to learn. Not good. Good pictures. ### 2/5 — Used to be amazing but! *2013-01-06, version 2.0* Loved the app when first got it a year or so ago! But! Following phone updates the videos no longer play with any sound, so that's made that part of the app pretty useless - update bug fix is needed ASAP! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great replay value *2026-03-06* Have gone from pretty basic skiing over the years to pretty dedicated backcountry steep terrain skiing almost entirely from this app. Great concise instruction for appropriate levels that’s easy to review time and time again. ### 5/5 — Excelente! *2024-08-02* Realmente ensina o primordial de uma forma bem didática! Recomendo com certeza! Alta qualidade! ### 5/5 — Great App *2020-09-20, version 3.1* Great App, coach has a good way of communicating what you need to do ### 5/5 — Ski School *2018-02-27, version 3.1* This is a great app. I am about to learn to ski and this app has given me good pre requisite advice on what you need to know before you hit the slopes and once you're there. I definitely recommend getting this app along with the intermediate and advance level apps as well. I give this a 5 out of 5 and hope to see interesting updates to the apps in the future. Please update for iPhone X screen edge to edge display. Optimize ski school apps for the new iPhone X screen. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2018-01-27* Couldn’t ask for a better ski instruction app/video. In 3 ski trips and 8 total days (6 half day lessons included) on the mountain, I have improved at a very fast pace. I definitely recommend watching these videos before paying the money for an instructor - you will get way more out of the lesson! ### 5/5 — Your own private coach! *2018-01-24, version 3.1* Absolutely superb. Clear, well paced, well stepped progressions. Fantastic video lessons as well as reference cards. Amazing to be able to get someone to video you and compare in a split screen to the app. What a fantastic resource to look at before hitting the slopes, reinforce lessons in person, review later, or use in the go to sort out problems. All the levels available from Beginner to Expert are fantastic. These Apps are.a game changer! ### 5/5 — Can’t say enough good *2018-01-23* This review is a bit late, but I started skiing 4 seasons ago and made a promise to myself that I would get it, and I used this app almost every time I skied. I would watch the tutorials on the lift, and practice on the way down. These apps taught me to ski! I now ski everything any of the resorts in Utah (hometown) can throw at me and I manage a ski shop and I now ski in the backcountry as well. Thank you for helping me find my life passion and developing this life long skill. Keep it up guys! ### 5/5 — Excellent introduction or refresher *2016-02-23, version 3.0* I bought this app to brush up on my head knowledge before having my first skiing lessons in more than 5 years. Really clear, unrushed and good quality. Much more convenient than trying to find the same info on YouTube. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2016-02-21, version 3.0* Simple to use with excellent, easy to follow lessons for complete beginners like myself. We've used this app and the intermediate one before holidays, in the cabins at the end of the day and on the slope itself. Am sure we got more from the apps than our friends did in a couple of local lessons. The kids have even started watching the videos to build their confidence. ### 5/5 — EXCELLENT *2015-11-27, version 2.0* This has got to be really the best series of instructional apps available --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
