TECHNICAL SKIIMPROVEMENTWhen youre goodbut know you should be better!

04 | TECHNICAL SKI IMPROVEMENT

SnowSkool technical courses: we

are going to make you ski better.

Simple. All trainers assigned

to teach SnowSkool technical

courses will be the most highly-

qualified and experienced ski

instructors. In France, we use BASI

ISTD (International Ski Teachers

Diploma) instructors. In Japan,

we use Aussie instructors that

hold the APSI Level 4 qualification.

Both are equivalent to the highest

level of any national bodies

snowsport instructor qualifications

in the world. You will be assigned

the same trainer for the duration

of your SnowSkool course.

Skiing; its funny old sport when

you think about it. You pay a

fortune to fly out there, stay in

a chalet and for the privilege of

sliding down a snow-covered

mountainside. You want to look

good, youre more than happy to

drop hundreds on a new pair of

skis in the hope this will improve

your technique. But how about

this; dont shell out for a new

jacket or pants this season a nd,

instead, spend the money on

getting some lessons to make you

into a controlled, efficient and

beautiful rider?

SnowSkool technical ski training

courses are for you if you know

that what you need is a course

rather than a series of lessons.

The overall aim is to help you jump

from the plateau that many skiers

find themselves on (with one or

two weeks on-snow per year) and

begin to ski harder terrain in a

more controlled fashion. Oh and,

once and for all, nail the moguls!

WE ARE GOING TO MAKEYOU SKI BETTER. SIMPLE.

SKI

POP!Park Freestylin is no longer justfor snowboarders and some of thecoolest kidz in the park today are

on two planks. The Ski POP course

will focus on jumps and, more

precisely, 180s and 360s as well as

some grabs and the odd flip.

Off-piste For many, the terrain

accessed by going under the

rope is where it is at. Tree-

runs, natural half-pipes & (mini)

cliff drops provide the kind of

adrenaline kick that, for some

skiers, the slopes no longer can.

Well take you theresafely!

Powder No-one likes skiing

powder for the first time but, when

you have nailed it, you will neverlook back. It is like silently floating

on a bed of cotton wool as

whispers of snow caress your face

in a mellow and seductive wayor

something like that!

All trainers assigned to teach

SnowSkool Ski POP courses will

be the most highly-qualified

ski instructors. All will also be

specialised and experienced

freestyle/ free-ride trainers.

You will be assigned the same

trainer for the duration of your

SnowSkool course.

Ok so it is a cheesy name but you

have to admit it works!

The Ski POP course is for skiers

that are looking to improve

broader aspects of their skiing,

covering all terrain and all

conditions. There will be an initial

focus on general ski improvement

as the class settles in, your trainer

assesses abilities and clarifies

the training requirements of the

group. The focus of Ski POP weeks

will depend on the conditions in

resort at that time but it will be all

about the pow, the kickers and

the backcountry !

08 | SNOWBOARD POP!

SNOWBOARD

POP!Park Its fair to say that you aint

all that at snowboarding until

youre all that at freestyle. Without

a downhill/ slalom/ GS pedigree,

the evolution of snowboarding is

inextricably linked to the evolution

of freestyle. The Snowboard POP

course is Jump Schoolthink 180s,

360s, grabs and progressing onto

front and back flips.

Off-piste For many, the

backcountry is where it is at.

The lure of tree-runs, natural

half-pipes and unpredictable

terrain & conditions is essential in

driving your riding forward. Butunpredictable is not for everyone

so well hold your hand as we go

where others have not!

Powder Skiers can say what they

want but any teacher of Physics

will tell you that riding pow is

better on a board. Standing at the

top of a wide-open powder field,

clipping in and getting ready to

drop in - its better than(fill

in the blanks!)

All trainers assigned to teach

SnowSkool Snowboard POP

courses will be the most highly-

qualified snowboard instructors.

All will also be specialised and

experienced freestyle/ free-ride

trainers. You will be assigned the

same trainer for the duration of

your SnowSkool course.

Everybody loves to get some

POP on their board!

Technical on-piste improver courses

for snowboarders have never held

that much appealfor todays rider,

it is all about the Park, the Off-

piste and the Powder! Well spend

the first morning assessing your

general riding ability and nailing

down where the weeks focus

lies we know the broad focus of

Snowboard POP weeks but some

of this is condition-dependant - and

then were off into the stratosphere!

EVERYBODYLOVES TO GET SOMEPOP ON THEIR BOARD!
