Alpine RACING Performance
the gist
We are piggybacking our AMERICAN DOWNHILLERS friends, offering a GS option on the front side and the back side of their speed project - making the most out of your travels to Mammoth. This turns your speed camp into a speed and a GS camp. It will be a full-go GS camp - looking at a defined turn-shape with gates.

In Full
Our GS Piggyback Camp is thought to be more of a full go scenario. Of course our philosophy and breakdown of skiing will be on the front-end of camp - beginning with concepts, drill work, free skiing and gates, all within these 5 days. These day will be long and energy expenditure will be high. Camp is designed in such a way to get you back on your GS feet quickly and it get going.
The past couple of years with the pandemic we have run a day-camp / hybrid model and we will continue with that. That means, athletes are not baby sat or micro-managed throughout their day. Athletes look after their own food needs , as well as their transportation. Of course we will help coordinate getting athletes to the grocery store for food shops and whatnot.
Afternoon dry-land activities are suggested and led by mentor coaches, with different activities per day to suit the different needs of different athletes,
Video is daily with your group coach and mentor coach.
Mammoth Mountain INN is the coaches accommodations. From here it's a simple walk to the lift. We'd suggest you coordinate the same accommodations as your AD Camp accommodations - this will keep things simple and streamline as you shift from one camp to another.
We have dedicated tuning rooms. so bring all your tuning boxes and vises. Benches will be provided.
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 so having skis ready for either discipline (and /or pow skis )will be need - with the accompanying mindset. [Disciplines skied will be weather dependent on a day-by-day basis.
