Many of the trainers we use have themselves been through these schools, and we aim to follow the high standards set by such organisations. Additionally, We are able to submit entries to Austrian local and county races, and some international and FIS events. This gives our trainees a chance to race against some of the best in the world. The modern philosophy in Austrian skiing is to give younger race trainees more mountain skills by letting them ski in different situations and not over concentrating on skiing through courses. We have found that changing the emphasis away from skiing race courses and back towards technical skills has brought about improvements in race times and lessened the burn out rates of young skiers. We can also offer personal individual training as well contact us for more details.
