Mount Hood On-Snow Summer Camp 2026 (Day Camp)

THIS A DAY CAMP OPTION ONLY ($2,800). To reserve a spot of for more information please contact Wes Preston directly (603) 726-6149 or email wes@freestyleamerica.com.

Summer on-snow training is essential for serious competitors who want to advance their skiing to the next level. The Freestyle America Mount Hood Camp maximizes the opportunity of summer glacier skiing through coaching focused on each athlete’s own personal goals and imparting a curriculum of technical skiing elements, proper jumping technique, and plenty of time on snow!

The training program includes the technical fundamentals of mogul skiing. A second training focus is aerial skill work, including rotations, off-axis tricks, and qualified inverted jumps. A third training component is competitive tactics, speed, aerial entries and exits. A fourth task is mileage and top to bottom competition quality skiing. Mogul skiers all share the goal of achieving 100 mogul runs throughout the camp.

CAMP SPECIFICS

Recommended ages for participation are 13 and up. Athletes should be competent skiers, and should have some competitive experience.

Camp Includes: Coaching, lift tickets, lodging, all breakfasts, lunches, and evening meals. There may be a dinner out and would be at the athletes’ own expense. On travel days, athletes will be responsible for their own meals.
