"The CDC adult performance weekend is the perfect environment to improve your on piste skiing ability, boost confidence and learn new skills. The coaching you receive both on and off the hill is first class, up to date and easy to understand. This makes the transition into skiing gates much easier and most importantly enjoyable. 15 seasons in the backcountry and I almost forgot how much fun they are! Thanks Chemmy, Dougie and the CDC team for a excellent season opener."
- Tom Lockyer
Winter 2020/21 we will again hosting 3 Adult Performance Camps, with one specifically for Ladies. This isn’t us being sexist - we had a lot of women get in touch wanting a specific weekend for them - we ran this last year and had rave reviews!
This is a camp open to all skiers who can comfortably ski a black run - holiday skiers who want to hit some gates, masters racers looking to lift the GB title, parents of racers who want to be able to experience the same thrills, spills and emotions their children go through. Whatever your goals we will help you reach them! We have the skills and numbers in our coaching team to divide up into small groups to make sure you get a fantastic and individual experience.
Dates:
Ladies Ski Camp 22nd - 26th Nov (Skiing Mon - Thur)
Adult Performance Camp 1 27th Nov - 1st Dec (Skiing Sat - Tue)
Adult Performance Camp 2 2nd - 6th Dec (Skiing Thursday - Sun)
Location: Hintertux Austria
With its high altitude, guaranteed snow and multiple training slopes (4 different options available) this is the perfect base for a great camp. A great reference website covering all aspects and more details of the glacier https://www.hintertuxergletscher.at/en/
Your Coaches
This years coaches include Olympian Chemmy Alcott and dynamic duo Lewis Reid and Charlie Luke. CDC provide world class coaching where every coach is highly vetted in terms of communication skills, their talent and their passion. Our coaches can ski! They will be able to demo all the skills asked of you, both in and out of gates.
We adopt positive coaching strategies at all times providing constant feedback to you in an encouraging but clear manner. Combining our care, passion and knowledge has become our proven formula for success.
Accommodation
We will be staying at the newly renovated 4* Hotel Tirolerhof (https://www.tirolerhof-tux.at) which has added an incredible swimming pool and spa area as well as new gym!
Please email Claudia on with your specific dates and say you are with CDC for our team price.
Equipment
You don't even need to have race skis to take part because we have a great relationship with Insider Sports who can rent out race equipment such as skis, boots, poles & back protectors. We will help arrange this and make sure you have what you need at the hotel waiting for you. It also allows you the opportunity to test skis - different lengths, models and makes - to find out what works best for you!
