Head Movement Signals

For the severely disabled and for those people who are unable to let go of the towrope, the following movements have been substituted for the hand signals.

Instruct the skier to make the head movements exaggerated, so that the normal bumps and jolts of skiing are not misinterpreted as speed change signals.

NOTE:  It may be necessary for the observer to continually repeat the above mentioned hand signals back to the skier until an agreed upon “affirmative” head signal is indicated by the skier.
