| What We Do Whether at Mount Hood, Vail 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 8:00AM. The world class resorts of Vail and Copper Mtn. are 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. |

| Typical Daily Schedule |
| 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. |

| Join us next Summer at Mt. Hood, Oregon! June 18 - July 31, 2011 |
| How It Works Arrival days: Nov 20 or Nov 24. Depart day: Dec 3 (or evening Dec 2) Our new schedule offers a number of benefits (one of the most obvious: you can take that pesky mid-term test before the Thanksgiving break!) along with premium training space and fewer crowds at Copper. With the addition of our Vail program, you will gain huge strides of confidence and practice, with our: 3 days ON - 1 day OFF - 6 days ON format. The Vail segment is demanding; snow conditions are aggressive (injected snow means "ice" or hard-hard snow) and our training partners can frequently include World Cup racers tuning up for early season World Cup races. If you are thinking about including Vail in your training plans, please call us to discuss. Going the whole route will be challenging, but we think our skiers will benefit from this intensive session. Think of it--a whole week-and-a-half with Olin/Lacasse! We will provide a detailed schedule and confirmation letter upon receiving your registration. Join us at our primary camp at Copper, or expand your training by skiing with Olin/Lacasse at two World Class Ski Areas--Vail and Copper Mountain. If you would like more detailed information on our program, please don't hesitate to call us at: TonyO 612-819-0186 |
