Free ride
Thanks to the innovation of the materials (wide skis, “sbananate” boards …) that allow even those who are still beginners to enjoy the fresh snow that our high mountains still offer us, you will be able to experience days really far from the mass of skiers in mountain environments that will literally leave you speechless. Not everyone can tell of having descended along the slopes that surrounded the Matterhorn and Mount Rosa.
Our ski and snowboard instructors will be able to accompany you along the off-piste slopes of the vast area that ranges from the Zermatt valley in Switzerland to the village of Alagna located in Piedmont …
The levels start from the discovery of the style of skiing in fresh snow for beginners up to the big differences in height starting from the glaciers at almost 4000 m! *
There are also courses for learning how to use the ARTVA shovel and probe, which are essential whenever you leave the beaten tracks.
Each participant will be provided (included in the price) ARTVA shovel probe and ABS backpack.
* In the case of glacier slopes, an Alpine Guide is provided.
Safety
Skiing with us means being able to take advantage of technical advice on skiing, but not only, the instructor will be able to offer you valuable information about safety and the prevention of accidents in the alpine environment. In fact all the instructors of the Valtournenche ski school are specialized professionals who have passed a training course lasting 90 days. During this training the students learn not only the techniques of the Italian ski manual but also all the precautions for skiing in total safety.
In addition, each master is required to update himself every 3 years to always be aware of any innovations of any kind. In this regard it is worth mentioning the SAFE SKI PROJECT of which the Ski School is Snowboarding of Valtournenche is part. In fact, we believe that being informed about the correct style of approach to the mountain is essential for safeguarding it and for anyone who lives it with passion and respect.
