Telemark and Alpine: Off-piste skiing courses 1

We have three types of off-piste skiing weeks:

SWITZERLAND – Les Crosets
Off-piste Performance (OP) 5/01/08 – 12/01/08

Off-piste Performance Plus (OPP) 12/01/08 – 19/01/08

Off-piste coaching for Telemark and Alpine skiers wishing to master skiing 'real snow'.

LEVELS:
Performance 3 – 4
Performance Plus 4 – 5
If you can 'get about' off-piste but are frustrated by some snow types and slopes and are fed-up with too many 'head-plants' then this is the week for you!
Easy access throughout the 'Portes du Soleil' ski area gives us a vast range of slopes and snows to go at – plenty of powder bowls, tree skiing, gullies and steeps.
5 x half days coaching (within 6 days skiing) in off-piste skills and techniques with plenty of free skiing.
Safety equipment (transceivers, etc.) will be needed for this week – full details in the Dossier.
Our chosen hotel provides a very convenient base – ski almost to the door and it's just 50m to the chairlift! The hotel also offers excellent food!

The linked areas of Cervinia, Zermatt and Valtournenche gives 350 kms of pistes and anincredible variety of off-piste in-between, all with almost 2000 m of vertical!
Typically December/January will give powder everywhere and April will give powder on the Swiss glaciers, untouched spring snow on the Italian side and all sorts in between! Perfect!

A great week for competent telemarkers and Alpine skiers looking to develop their off-piste skill and confidence.
