What We Do
Whether at Mount Hood, Austria, or Copper Mountain, Colorado, our training
day begins early. In order to take advantage of special lane space, our training
day will typically begin at 7:30AM. The world class Timberline Resoort is
serviced by state-of-the-art lifts. On an average day, a racer can expect to
achieve 15-20 quality gate-training runs. This translates to more gates, more
practice and more learning. We divide our enrollment into groups based on
ability. We aim to achieve a ratio of 8-10 skiers per coach. Each group
develops from fundamentally based exercises with directed free skiing and
gate drills and rapidly progresses into full-on gate training. You can expect to
have training mates of your caliber and/or often ones who challenge you to set
your sights higher than your present level. We are expecting to have racers
attending our camps form all over the United States, Canada, and Europe.

Dryland Training
We will have a variety of Dryland
training activities; among them
include: running, swimming, sport
games (such as soccer) and a
variety of calisthenics and exercise
(such as circuit training). We are,
however, primarily concerned with
getting down to the intricacies of
technical skiing and skill
acquisition. Therefore,our activities
regarding dryland training will be
dictated by our needs on the ski hill,
i.e., after a long day on the slopes.
What to Bring
• Ski Equipment including: slalom and giant slalom skis, slalom and giant slalom poles if you have both
and ski boots. Helmets-both SL and GS-are required for training.
• Goggles (required for gate training), sunglasses, sun-block (SPF 15 minimum), lip-block
(SPF 15
minimum)
• Racing gear–helmets are required for GS training, mouth and/or face-protecting head-gear is required
for slalom training. Shin-guards and hand-guard protection are also required for
slalom training.
• Regular clothing: temperature and weather can vary dramatically in the mountains.
Be prepared for
quite cool nights (sweaters, long pants, jackets), warm days could demand
shorts and t-shirts and
occasional rain gear. Historic dining at nearby Silverthorne, Colorado, or at the Timberline Lodge, OR,
as well as Tyrolian SommerFest nights requires a nice set of casual attire.
• Other Stuff that you might not have thought of: Small back-pack for extra clothing, snacks, water
while on the mountain. Soft-sided lunch box if you want to pack snacks for the mountain, water bottle
(double size or liter works best), extra set of gloves, running shoes and work-out clothes for
dryland/physical training, alarm clock (each room has a radio/alarm clock and wake-up calls ––but
some may need the extra alarm as a backup!).
