Day 1, Saturday, September 19th -  The Treble Cone sponsored Freeride Clinic aims to teach all the competitors about mountain safety, skiing and riding competitively, how competitions work and what judges are looking for in a competition run.  This is a great opportunity for all kids to ski and ride ski with Treble Cone’s top Snow Sports Instructors as well as Geoff Small and his team of Coaches.  

“Our goal is to get all of our local kids out on the hill and in a competition where they can express themselves in a unique format.  The clinic aims to teach the youth about safety and how to use the mountain to their advantage,” said Acting Managing Director, Tim Hudson
