Alpine RACING Performance
the gist
Touching snow for the first time for your last prep camp of the season is incredibly valuable, but getting to do it as early as you can in your final push of the prep season is critical. Give yourself those extra days to put the worry of not having enough days aside. Get on snow, knock the rust off, get your thoughts organized, and get your focus organized prior to your Team camps.

The Trifecta...<3 of 3>
 Okay, so... We've made new habits, built them correctly, then strengthened them, we didn't move past that point to quickly or emotionally - whats left ?
Time to find speed!
This is the point we get right into gates - it's time to go! Don't worry we will always initially reconnect with our base - a quick revisit with Directed Free Skiing & drills. This project we primarily focus for tactics and pushing for speed. Like all the progressions the timing is critical to nail - its all about getting the sequence of movements correct and putting your ski where your technique can take you,
As a Standalone Camp
If you've been a part of any of our previous projects, you know our philosophy, concepts, and processes and how we talk about them - that is our backbone! That will always remain uncompromised. That is where we will pick up to revisit, and reinforce how to best go forward within our Camps. With that, for those joining for the first time - no worries, we will get you up to speed with that understanding to be most productive immediately.
These Camps moves quickly into a full go, full length scenario, while revisiting technical concepts with newly introduced tactical concepts straight away in gates.
>>> Constructed to dig into a discipline, and fully get up to speed.
These are get up to speed, and get going camps - no eff'n around!
High-Intensity. High-Energy. Highly focused. Your are going to get pushed - plain and simple!

In Full
The past couple of years with the pandemic we have run a daycamp / hybrid model and we will continue with that. That means, athletes are not baby sat or micro-managed throughout their day. Once you get off the hill - do your work: lunch, nap, video , tune skis, online classess, dryland, etc... whatever that maybe.
Athletes look after their own food needs -of course we will help coordinate getting athletes to the grocery store for food shops and whatnot.
Afternoon dryland activities are suggested with different activities per day to suit the different needs from the day.
Video -we bring a big focus proper technical body position and movemnet sequence from seeing it and understanding it in WC video and going forward with visualization on the hill. We then blend that with then anyanylizng your own video to see what is happening and how it is happening.
Townhomes/Condo are what we have organize for accommodations with full kitchens. From these accomodations it is a simple walk to the lift.
We have dedicated tuning rooms so bring your tuning boxes and vises. Benches will be provided - but if you're driving and you have one, bring it!
Weather: As always we can plan and have progression build from the first day to the last but in the end Mother Nature dictates - everyday is weather dependent!
With that from the coaches side, we always work our ass off to make the best training possible happen!
