Alta Spring Performance Camp
Tue Apr 10 - Sat Apr 14
"The
camp has exceeded my expectations and was one of my best ski
experiences. For me everything came together just right--the ski guides,
the snow, the group and the Lodge." --Jim L. 2010
This three-day camp, led by Stephen Helfenbein and Dr. Collin
Bywaters, takes skiers to expert terrain to employ all-mountain ski
tactics and techniques. Alta
Performance Ski Camp is for advanced to expert skiers who want to take
their skiing experience at Alta and Snowbird to a new level. The camp
takes a progressive approach to coaching skiers off the hill as well,
instructing them in dry land training for better skiing fitness.
"The
coaching was excellent. But beyond that, part of the camp experience
is the opportunity to interact with the coaches, Stephen and Collin, and
the camaraderie of the other participants." --M. Brown, 2010
The
coaches have developed an innovative coaching system that builds
all-mountain confidence and versatility. The camp is designed for skiers with high goals. Goals include:
-Reading the terrain and conditions for ideal line selection
-Skiing an entire line without interruption
-Learning how to use your skis in different snow conditions
-Using turn shape to attack the hill while maintaining speed control
-Dry land training
Coaching
will
be in a 2:8 group ratio, with three days of guided skiing on
expert terrain at Alta and Snowbird. We'll emphasize all-mountain ski
tactics and techniques. Also included is alignment and functional
physical evaluation by a biomechanics expert, video analysis of skiers,
and evening indoor presentations that include two dry land training
sessions. Skiers will learn what they can do to obtain optimum
conditioning for skiing.
