Winter Alpine Racing

U12 Alpine Racing

The U12 Alpine Racing program is for kids who are interested in alpine racing and for kids who just want to work on their fundamental skiing skills using racing to teach those skills at a high level. Training includes gate training, skiing bumps, powder, trees, jumps, and steeps, equipment preparation and more. Skiers participate in the local Steamboat Cup Series and RMD Age Class races within the U.S. Ski & Snowboard Rocky Mountain Division. Athletes participating in fall sports do not need to attend dryland training that is in conflict with their practice schedule, but dryland is highly encouraged for all others. The U12 Ski Meisters and U12 Ski & Jump programs are options that include ski jumping and cross country skiing for a complete skiing skill set! Jumping and cross country training goes through March 14.
