Progress what tricks you can safely do on the piste and in the park, while meeting other snowboarders with the same interests as you.
Freestyle (tricks, jumps, rails, park) learned correctly minimises risk, and avoids a lot of the worst falls early on if you get the right information and have someone to catch you on your first attempts. In this group we welcome people from different stages of progression, and focus on specific fundamentals starting from edge control and switch riding (For those less experienced with it) up to rails and boxes in the park (for those less experienced in park).
This is a 'more feedback' style of group, where things will go slower so that you can systematically repeat the fundamentals. You'll have the option to practice either in the park or on the slopes. To make the most of it, please enjoy the group dynamic where we stay close together, and choose certain adaptations on the fundamentals to practice together.
This group will have two instructors, making it possible to split the group depending on what interests and progress level each student has. We’ll adapt exercises — for example, edge control (carving) can be practiced normally if you want to improve, and done switch if regular carving is already easy for you. (Yes, riding switch is very important for freestyle!)
