Intermediate Session (ages 8-14)
The intermediate program is for children with some experience in the skatepark. Skaters will work on dropping in on banks on quarter pipes and coaches will work with the skaters to focus on using those basic skills to start learning fundamental tricks in the park. The intention of Spring Camp is to allow a warm-up back into skateboarding and to build confidence before the summer sessions begin in June.
