For skiers looking for the next challenge and a more extreme push in their skiing look no further than the Academy’s off-piste specific course – the Supergroup.
The Supergroup will push you both physically and emotionally whilst challenging and developing your technical skiing skills in harder terrain.
The groups will spend the majority of time off the piste, pretty much from the offset of day 1. All skiers in this group will be skiing with full avalanche kit and protective clothing.
