Monday Off Piste Technique Workshops in St. Anton, Arlberg

We are once again running our popular Monday Technique clinics – a half day intense workshop to develop or fine tune your Off Piste skills. These fun and confidence boosting workshops will take you through a series of drills, first on piste before applying to the Off Piste. After 3 hours you will be ready for the next steps e.g. adding on 2 more full days in our Intro to Off piste camp or jumping straight into the OPEN GROUPS.

Aimed at at ALL LEVELS: Amazing for Level 1 – confident on piste skiers able to make short controlled turns on a red or black run but who may have never skied Off piste before or only dabbled on the side. Also suitable for Level 2 wanting to improve their technique or even Level 3 skiers fine tuning their skills particularly on the first day back on the snow! All are welcome and our technique expert Geli will give you personal 1:1 feedback for your level to rapidly improve your skills and boost your confidence!

Equipment for Off Piste Technique Boosters

Equipment is key to skiing Off Piste – you need skis with around 100mm underfoot – the wider generally the easier as it will give you more lift. As most of this clinic is done on Piste you can also ski with 95-98mm underfoot if this is your ski width. We will recommend if you should change your skis for the next 2 days.

You can rent Off Piste easily to start with but we recommend investing in your own boots for comfort. A light merino base, fleece and gore tex jacket are essentials with an additional layer in your backpack to protect against the cold and plenty of high sun protection factor.

Generally a 25 liter pack will suffice to hold your safety equipment (shovel and probe). If you don’t have a backpack youc an rent one from the guide .  Energy snacks are also important -and carry plenty of water – a camel back makes it easy to stay hydrated or a flask with 1 liter of water or water with Magnesium.

Ski Fitness

You will need a reasonable level of fitness so make sure to do some warm up before you start your ski holiday. It is important to include aerobic training to ensure your legs don’t tire too early – any sports tennis, cycling, running will help and yoga is really helpful for flexibility.
