Freeride Program Takes Training Year Around!

The 2021/2022 on-snow season started earlier than usual for the Jackson Hole Ski and Snowboard Club's Freeride Program.  New to the Freeride Program is training on-snow in the summer - and boy did our athletes start their training season with a notable splash!  For 7-days our athletes trained on-snow, spent time on trampolines, practiced freestyle maneuvers into foam pits, and skateboarded in a world class facility.  The progression of our athletes was amazing to witness, and their work ethic notable from receiving coaches' feedback on-snow to breaking down movement analysis during every evenings video review sessions.

Thanks to all the Freeride Program families, Athletes, and good people from Woodward at Copper Mountain for making this camp a reality.  We look forward to taking the skills learned to snow early next winter!  If you want to learn more about the JHSC Freeride Program, or if you have someone in mind that would benefit from our competitive level coaching, please contact andy@jhskiclub.org to learn more about our freeski and snowboard programs.
