Secret sessions running every Friday and Saturday… Join in when it suits you

A typical SSSS session will start with a morning technical focus, followed by plenty of guided mileage and fun but focused free skiing throughout the day. We’ll use frequent video analysis to log your progress throughout the season. 

Make Measurable Progress Our Weekly Themed Skill Sessions

These weekly themes are just a guideline and will be adjusted to the goals and skill level of each participant as well as the condtions on the mountain. We understand that when things get too easy, you get bored, and when things get too difficult, you get frustrated. Our goal is to keep you in your personal challenge zone where you’re learning lots and having fun.

*Please note the SSSS Powder Clause: If it snows significantly we’re probably going to ditch the technical theme, skip lift lines and shred powder! We’ll shift the focus to all mountain tactics in whatever conditions mother nature provides.
