1 Day Off Piste Taster

3 Day Off Piste Skiing Skills
We have 2 versions of this course -
a) 2 days with one of our Elite Instructors and 1 day with a
Mountain Guide. This course focuses on improving your
skiing skills, abolishing your fears, giving you new techniques
and psychological advantages to tackling "The Off Piste" then
being able to put it all into practice with the Guide on the 3rd
day. More

b) 1 day with one of our Elite Instructors and 2 days with a
Mountain Guide. Different twist to this course is that we
not only give you tips and techniques for your Off Piste Skiing
but you can experience the excitement of Ski Touring.
Basically an introduction to using touring equipment, how to
wear it, add it all together and use it!

Mountaineers Performance
So successful over the last 2 years
they have been running.
Co-ordinated by Alison Culshaw, she has taken Mountaineers who
have only just put touring equipment on to reaching success in
passing their Alpine Skiing element of the Guide programme, a
testament to her dedication and skills and experience in all
areas of Skiing/Ski Touring/Mountaineering/Climbing. A
course not to be missed if you are a Mountaineer at heart.
