Freeride Technique Camp Austria
The freeride technique camp Austria is a shortski adventure in Vorarlberg (for both skiers and snowboarders) where we focus on freeride technique training. In other words, this is the perfect camp for those who still no off-piste experience has and will leren freeriden, maar ook voor de experienced freeriders die hun engineering want verbeteren. During this camp, in fact, the foundation laid to the backcountry to be able to withdraw. On the slopes we train you the engineering which you will have to apply off piste. Next, we will then next to and between the slopes snowboarding/skiing to make this technique at fit and continued at refine. Once everyone has figured out the technique and is comfortable, we also effectively pull the backcountry in to everything toe at fit what we learned have.
On the end of this camp will you level suffice To participate in a level 1 freeride camp or a level 1 tourski & splitboard camp. In addition, during this trip you will also receive theory and practical classes around avalanche safety and the use of safety equipment.
From our hotel we drive approximately 30 minutes to one of the surrounding top touring and freeride areas. The hotel is located at the beginning of 5 valleys including Montafon with the famous Silvretta area and Klostertal with the Arlberg ski area. Arlberg, known as one of the best freeride areas in Europe has over 200 km of freeride routes and is also a 'schneeloch' (area of extreme snowfall). The exact location will be decided by the guide depending on the weather and snow conditions at the time.

Guides
Safety is our number one priority. The guides we work with must therefore meet our strict requirements. In Austria we work together with Irian Van Helfteren. Irian is a Austria's "Staatlich Geprüfter" ski and snowboard instructor and "snowboardführer" who is thus allowed to guide off-piste and backcountry. Since 2003 he has lived in the Alps, guided in several countries around the world, and competed in downhill and big mountain competitions including the Freeride World Tour. In other words, he possesses a extremely good knowledge of the area and the required expertise around avalanche safety.
Safety Equipment
For each participant is safety equipment including backpack, avalanche pager, shovel and probe mandatory. As a backpack advise we have a airbag. Everyone should yourself safety equipment take away or can those hire from us.
Insurance
Finally, we require each participant to provide a Proof of purchase of travel insurance specifically for off-piste skiing and snowboarding for the entire period of the trip. An example is short-term travel insurance with winter sports/special winter sports coverage at Allianz or KBF. Call and email your insurer in advance, explain what you will be doing and make sure you have a good understanding of what all is covered and what the exceptions are! If desired, we will help you find the correct insurance.
