We teach you the fastest line down a race course, how to tear up the terrain park, how to charge the off-piste steeps, how to safely explore the backcountry and everything in between. Experience the freedom of being able to tackle the whole mountain in any conditions and get a head start to a career as a ski or snowboard instructor as well as many other aspects of the industry such as guiding, coaching and outdoor leadership. 7 Certifications included.
