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.
