Beginner Clinic

$50

Beginner Clinic, from 10am to noon: The beginner skate clinic is intended for individuals who have never skate skied before, but have experience on either downhill or classic skiing. This clinic may also be for those who may have skate skied a little but are still looking to improve their fundamental skills. We strongly encourage some experience on skis (downhill or classic skiing). This should not be your first time on skis.

  • Learn to move around on skate skis and be introduced to the basics of climbing hills, slowing/stopping, and making turns
  • Technique topics covered: generating efficient forward movement, proper body position, weight shift, balance and timing arms and legs
  • Beginner clinic will primarily cover V1 technique, but may introduce participants to the V2 and V2-alternate techniques as time allows
  • Beginner clinic will primarily take place on beginner terrain

Intermediate Clinic

$50

Intermediate Clinic, from 1pm to 3pm: The intermediate skate clinic is intended for individuals who have had at least one season of skate skiing experience or who have received some form of skate skiing instruction in the past.

  • Take a deeper dive into the nuances of the three skate skiing techniques (V1, V2, and V2 alternate) and spend time emphasizing when is the best time to use and transition between the three techniques.
  • Time may also be spent going over cornering and downhill techniques
  • Intermediate clinic will take place on a wide variety of terrain ranging including some steeper hills
