Skiwees (ski) and Lowriders (snowboard) Programmes

Academy

The Academy is a coaching programme for Skiers & Snowboarders, aged 10 & above* with intermediate or advanced skills. The Academy provides a social environment for kids to extend their skills, challenge themselves and explore the mountain.  Coaches will take the kids through all aspects of the sport including racing, gravity-X, half pipe, slope-style and big mountain.

From the season long programme to July holiday camps, open their eyes to the different aspects of skiing and snowboarding in a fun, social environment.

The Academy is suited to kids that are looking to develop and progress their skills in a social rather than competitive environment.
