Controlled Fall

Controlled Fall: Collected Ski Stories is perhaps the most curious compendium of ski tales ever assembled.  That they are the product of one brief career in ski “journalism” is perhaps frightening.   The pieces assembled here – some slightly used by prior appearances in the pages of SKI and Skiing Heritage, some sparkling new - are categorized under such headings as Why We Ski, Thoughts about Equipment, and The Greg Stump Songbook.  The selections range in style from brief meditations to howling yarns and include 24 unpublished lyrics and 7 recipes of cloudy provenance.
