So sad, make a person really grab the day, hold it tight. I only met Ron once, a couple of years ago at the Denver SIA my go to boot fitter Jeff Bergeron (Boot Fixation) introduced me, and then Jeff made the point I really must get Ron's book(s). Since then Ultimate Skiing is parked on my coffee table to just grab and try to understand better. Ron...thank you...you continue to make a difference to my skiing.
