Course Description:

Description: Technical Skills Clinic, Full Day, On-Snow

Assessment Prep Goal: This clinic will prepare candidates for off-piste skiing expected at the Level 3 standard. Participants will ski non-groomed/natural snow conditions on advanced and expert terrain, but may also spend time in other conditions.

Continuing Education Goal: Improve personal skiing in natural snow conditions.

Clinic Outcomes: By the end of this clinic, participants will be able to:

-- Link a series of round turns in a variety of snow textures on advanced and expert terrain.

-- Identify and discuss the personal changes that contributed to more confident and controlled

off-piste skiing.

Clinic Experiences:

-- The clinic leader and participants will collaborate to determine a relevant goal related to off-

piste skiing.

-- The participants will ski off-piste advanced and expert terrain.

-- The clinic leader will emphasize skill blends that create round turns that are the result of the

ski's design and maintain a consistent yet aggressive speed with minimal deceleration.

-- The clinic leader will demonstrate tactics to adapt turn shape, size, and line in response to

the conditions.

-- The clinic leader will provide feedback so participants are able to make specific adjustments.

-- The clinic leader will facilitate practice so participants may apply their feedback

-- The clinic leader will facilitate reflection on the day's goal and what tactics helped in creating

consistency and control off-piste.
