TIGNES SUMMER RACE CAMPS

01 June 2004


Regular visitors to Natives will already know about some of the Freeski and Freestyle Summer Camps going on, such as the British Freeski Camps and BUSC. But what is there out there for aspiring racers?

Focus on the ski itself
You could do worse than check out Ski Focus, summer camps in Tignes, which ‘focus’ on the ski itself. It is based on the principle that the key to efficient skiing lies in focusing on the performance of the ski rather than the performance of the skier. By concentrating on this aspect all unnecessary, complicated instructions to mind and body are excluded. Instructors are fully qualified British Ski Instructors and or Alpine Performance Race Coaches. There are no language problems so more skiing and learning are achieved.

Package
The standard package includes intensive training in small groups of 4-8 people and video analysis. Unlike other summer camps, half board accommodation and flights and transfers are also included in the package price, which makes it great value for money at £595.

Race Specific Training
Race training weeks additionally include fitness testing & training, ski servicing, psychological & tactical aspects of race day preparation, plus race lane allocation & gate training

Dates & Booking
The courses run each week from 31 July to 21 August, with discounts available for longer stays. For more information contact Ski Focus on +44 1296 624126 or check out the website.
