Freeriding with pro skier Lorraine Huber in Lech am Arlberg: the ultimate freeride event for advanced female skiers!

With a new and improved program, KJUS Teamrider & professional freerider Lorraine Huber will be directing an all-inclusive freeride camp for advanced female off-piste skiers. Join Lorraine and local ski guide Angelika Kaufmann (4-times winner of the race “Weißer Ring”) in a unique 2-day program in one of the world’s best freeride spots: the Arlberg.

In small groups of not more than 6 women per guide, you can hone your ski technique and push your skiing to the next level in an incredibly fun and motivating environment. A professional cameraman will accompany the groups and capture the best moments on film for you to take home. Furthermore, participants will be able to test the newest Kästle freeride skis and the latest KJUS jackets from the FRX line.

Our “basecamp” will be in the beautifully located Chalet Charlotte, 2 minutes walk from the 4-star Hotel Kristberg where we will be taking our meals and using the wellness facilities after a long day on the mountain. The event includes a yoga session to ease tight muscles and relax your mind so you recover faster and get the most out of the following ski day.

The Women’s Freeride Camp will take place from 18 to 20 March 2012 – please use the application form at the top on the right to register for this event.
