Introductory Ski and Snowboard Programs for Kids & Teens

2009-2010 Park Sharks Ski and Snowboard Team

The Park Sharks is a multi-discipline  ski or snowboard program geared toward skiers aged 6 to 14 or riders aged 7 to 17. Emphasis is placed on overall skill development in a low-key, fun environment. Skiers and riders will be exposed to freestyle, park & pipe, racing and all-mountain fun. Groups of roughly eight children with similar abilities will work closely with an expert Competition Center coach toward skill improvement. Basic skills of balance and body position will be emphasized within the framework of different disciplines and terrain. Competition opportunities will be provided but are not required.

The Park Sharks program is a season-long program and is a great stepping stone to other Competition Center programs in alpine racing, freestyle, and snowboarding. The highest goal of the Park Sharks is learning ski and riding fundamentals in a fun environment, with an emphasis on skiing or riding as a life sport.

• Skiers should be able to get on and of the lift unassisted and be able to stop and make wedge turns on green terrain.

2009 Kahunas Parent Program

The Parent Kahunas program has been created with parents of children in Competition Center programs in mind. The Kahunas program provides adults with an environment to improve their own skills, meet other parents, and learn about our programs. Kahunas will get a hands on understanding of what their children are learning. The program will also introduce adults to the other possibilities available to them in the Competition Center and give them the confidence and skills to join our Alpine or Freestyle Masters programs if they so desire. Fun on the mountain will be paramount to the program.
