David Lawrence

David Lawrence lives to ski and skis to live. As a member of the PSIA National Nordic Team, David travels the west leading camps, clinics and exams for skiers, instructors and coaches. He runs the popular nordic website XCSkiAcademy.com, where he posts articles and videos about training, waxing, teaching and technique tips. His clinics are fast paced and fun, filled with the latest World Cup racing tactics and techniques distilled into attainable drills and memorable pointers. He laces every lesson with tips and tricks on rapid skill acquisition and how neuroscience helps us learn faster and retain more. During the summer, you'll find David on the Clark Fork River or Spokane River, guiding and running his business Pangaea River Rafting.
