DAY 1: We start by looking at how you stand while riding your board. By correcting your posture with effective exercises, you’ll develop freedom of movement to make the appropriate actions to work your board. From here you’ll learn to make effective steering movements helping you to become more dynamic when it comes to driving your board through each turn. DAY 2: On the second day we work on carving on an easy slope. This is all about improving you edge control to leave nice clean lines in the snow from start to finish of your turns. It feels great!We’ll also practice switch riding, a skill which will help your all-round technique and makes you a more versatile rider. DAY 3: Today we look at steeper slopes and variable terrain. By using effective steering techniques backed up by sound posture you’ll be able to ride on steeper runs in control of your speed and line. Depending on conditions we’ll venture off-piste and learn to cope with a variety of snow conditions and types of terrain. DAY 4: This session is about freestyle. No matter whether it’s your first time or you have experience in freestyle riding, we'll teach you some basic technique or new tricks so that you can impress your mates! Under the supervision of your instructor and in a safe environment, you’ll see that you don’t have to be a seasoned rider to pull off flatland tricks, bust some airs or even ride the pipe. DAY 5: The last day of the course is about putting everything you’ve learnt into practice. You’ll learn to view the mountain in a different way and to ride expressively using a flowing technique. You’ll be able to take your new knowledge with you to improve everyday. |
