Will there be any video analysis?

Each day we will be providing individualized on hill iPad video analysis. From our experience, visual feedback during training sessions has proven to be the most productive and powerful use of video. Campers can take what they see in their on hill video sessions and instantly implement changes into their skiing. iPad video is a powerful tool for visual improvements and growth throughout the week!

We take two videos per girl each day and upload campers’ video to Google Drive for campers and parents to review on their own.

Note: we do not take video footage on the first day of camp which is the drill day.

Your daughter will come home with a journal full of feedback and skills learned for her upcoming season!

Will there be opportunities to demo skis at camp?

There are opportunities in Government Camp to demo skis from different ski companies. Early June to mid July are when all the ski companies’ demo centers are open. Summer training is a great time to try different equipment from a variety of ski companies. Please let us know throughout your session if you would like assistance and advice with ski demos.
