Mogul Skiing is one of the greatest challenges a skier can face. Conquer the bumps and you can ski anywhere on the mountain. Good mogul skiers learn to adjust to ever-changing terrain, with a technique that requires much more range of motion than regular skiing.
The Mogul Program
Using coaching techniques developed directly from World Cup skiers and coaches, Momentum teaches you the correct way to absorb, control speed and ski the zipper line with confidence! Combining exercises on the flats, use of our ‘absorption tank’, practise in soft summer bumps, a step by step approach to air and daily video review, our program is set up to progress your skiing.
Terrain/Facilities:
Momentum builds a private and world class Mogul training area every summer:
- Located on Horstman Glacier at the top of Blackcomb Mountain, we have the largest, highest and most diverse summer snow park in North America
- 12 lines of perfect bumps on a super course measuring 24 meters wide (80′) x 280 meters long (920′)
- includes 8 lines of bumps with tables and jumps plus 4 lines of bumps dedicated to moguls only (no tables or jumps)
- two tables with a pro jump built to spec for World Cup
- large coaching table at the bottom with a ‘learn to flip and spin’ jump site
- double wide absorption tank to help you learn the right timing and technique for absorbing the bumps
- two tables with a pro jump built to spec for World Cup
- 2 giant on-snow airbags, including a 150 foot long Progression Landing Bag
- Off-hill trampolines along with all the best summer activities Whistler has to offer
- a full Water Ramp facility
- Learn new tricks safely on trampolines, water-ramps and airbags before taking them to forgiving soft, summer snow
Coaching:
Without question, we have the greatest line up of talented Moguls Coaches in the world, and it’s no coincidence that many of these coaches were also once Momentum campers themselves. It’s almost like a lifecycle – start out as a camper, go make your mark on the world and come back to coach the new generation! It’s this relationship between the coaches and the campers that makes Momentum so successful. There is no faster way to learn a sport than by copying….the key is WHO you are copying! By simply being themselves, our coaches instil the belief which made them successful – that everyone can achieve their goals, no matter what level you aspire to!
- Small customized groups, ensuring that each camper can focus on the skills they want to learn
- One-on-one attention and in-depth video review every day
- Work with a different pro each day with exposure to all our great coaches to maximize learning
- Optional sport psych session to help optimize on-snow performance
- Video footage from the week emailed to you at end of camp.
