British Freestyle Skiing will be holding a Women's talent ID camp in Saas Fee , Switzerland between 23rd and 30th April for Halfpipe skiing.
We are looking to identify existing and new talent to nurture and train up to Europa and World Cup level for both Home Nation teams and Great Britain. No experience in the Freestyle disciplines is necessary though we are looking for strong all round skiers - those with an alpine background aremore than welcome. Half-pipe has a strong element of alpine technique and hence good flat skiing skills are a big advantage for generating height and speed.
Whether you're already a pipe skier or a newcomer this is an excellent training opportunity with like minded women under the tutelage of top coaches.
Saas-Fee is currently the top summer skiing glacier due to the snow quality and the shaping in the Saas-Fee snowpark and skiers cross course. Because the terrain available in the summer in Saas-Fee, the camps also have the opportunity to test skiers on steeps, moguls and amazing well groomed pistes.
Camp will include on snow training, trampoline work, fitness work and video analysis as well as a comprehensive breakdown on the skills needed for this exciting Freestyle discipline.
The camp will be delivered by Pat Sharples and Andy Bennett. Prior to booking please call Pat Sharples on 0797 4205852 for a discount. Then book onto the April 23rd camp through
