Why are balance and coordination important in skiing training?

Balance and coordination are the cornerstones to good alpine skiing.

The point of skiing is to make it down the hill – preferably, remaining on your feet! Without balance and coordination, you will fall down a lot, making the experience less fun and more dangerous. Balance training using such tools as balance boards, Bongo boards, and Swiss balls will help you develop your balance – as well as improve your range of motion and core strength. Other activities that will help you develop your balance in dynamic settings include inline skating, trail running and jumping rope.
