Poster: A snowHead
|
in europe , for beginners. want to practice my hucks. and I ski, if that makes a difference. any recommendations? (searching didn't produce many useful results).
If I go, would be for a week to mostly focus on learning to ride obstacles and do jumps, to improve offpiste technique...

Grindelwald (CH) has 2 big parks and a skiercross course which is open to the public. We often use the skiercross course - it’s brilliant

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Flachauwinkl in Ski Amade have a huge park - and there are a dozen more parks in the area. Laax is also a good bet.

Avoriaz has the stash, and the mini stash parks plus a couple of other terrain parks.
Get a portes de soleil pass and check the off piste at the chatel area

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Avoriaz - there's the Lil Stash to warm up, then the Stash, La Chapelle Park, Arare Park, Boarder Cross. Then drop over to Les Crosets for the Happy park - which has a really nice mix of hits and combo boxes to practice your trannies. Also 3 natural gulleys to ride. Super Chatel has IMHO a better boarder cross as it has a steep section with a blind entrance and the smooth park has plenty of beginner boxes / rainbows etc.. There's a little fun park in Torgon and an entry level boarder X just up from here in La Chapelle. There used to be a nice park on Mt Chery, but last year there has been a slow boarder X and smallish park on the Chavannes side of Les Gets, and there is also basic park at Nyon.

Laax, Morzine, Ski Amade (Absolut Park) are probably the leaders. Stubai Zoo maybe worth a look too, once the massive Prime Park Sessions pro lines have been tamed a bit
