 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi - i've started skiing on Sandown dry slope in UK and have been going regularly the last few months. I'm up to a level where i REALLY want to learn how to carve and do some race training. I'm 31 and the Sandown Race Club is set up for youngsters so i'm looking for somewhere in the south east where i can train and learn regularly with like minded and like aged! people. i have a background in karting and dh mountainbiking but having recently discovered skiing I've found myself enjoying it immensely and am really keen to make progress! 
Please help!
Many thanks!
Andy

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

andyski, we have an adults' club at Aldershot, and train from 7:45am-9:30 on Saturdays. We normally get 10-20 at a session, of varying standards from pretty basic to quite keen, and ages from about 20 to 70+. Drop me a line (another post here or by PM) if you want any more info.
FYI, there is also a rather larger kids club (entry up to 18 ), which trains on Sun am, and they're increasingly competent - now with a waiting list.
Another one that may be convenient for you is Bowles - situated just south of Tunbridge Wells - which is both adults and kids. They train (IIRC) Fri evenings, 5:30-7:30 (or something like that). ski on this board is the head coach there so will be able to give you the low-down for them.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

andyski,
We run race training at Hemel on a Monday evening (20.00-22.00). We do have established racers on these sessions and variable standard adults.
We've been running these sessions during the summer for the last two years.
Drop me a pm for further details.

Bowles is really nice, very friendly people, excelelnt coaching.
Some are VERY good, but some are definitely at the just started slalom level.
Sadly, I only get up from Brighton a few times a year.
