WATER RAMP/ AIRBAG TRAINING
Summer is all about developing and building new skills for the upcoming winter season. Water ramp/Air Bag training is the perfect off-season training to help athletes develop air-awareness and to work on skill development in a safe environment. Training sessions will help athletes achieve their goals towards on-snow performance.
Our water ramp/Air Bag camps are open to Fernie Freestyle Athletes in all program old and new. Athletes need to be ready physical and mentally to ski/ride down the ramps to the water or airbag. All athletes must have a current Freestyle BC Membership.
