Test Technique Courses
HEMEL
Two hour sessions run at Hemel snowcentre as an introduction to slalom and are aimed at those with little or no slalom experience. These sessions are run to introduce candidates to slalom with technique based training combined with gate training, using stubby gates initially for line and to build confidence. During this training period, we will be looking at your technique and working on allowing your skis to run much faster to allow you to race rather than just ‘ski’ the courses. Video analysis will be used at all of these sessions.
LANDGRAAF
We will also run training at Landgraaf in the Netherlands using their 500m indoor hill which has been used for Europa cup races. The cost for this training will include half board accommodation and all time on the hill. we will run this on a minimum of 2 days.
AUTUMN TRAINING
Normally run during the first 3 weeks of November with training from Monday to Friday. During this training period, we will initially work on easier terrain to build on the skills you have already and increase you speed. Then we will move terrain to use these skills. Each week we will run timing as a real-time guage on your progress. On the hill training will be each morning, followed by some light fitness. Video Analysis sessions will run a minimum of 3 evenings per week.
