Skate Weeks in Obertilliach

This season we will be running two dedicated skate weeks to learn or refine your skating .

Each week is open to all levels of skier, from the first timer to the most advanced skier, for those who are transferring from roller skiing to on snow for the first time.  

Focus during the week is to develop all the aspects of skating, and developing all the techniques required to become an efficient skater

Each day we will work on all specific techniques, with video feedback, fault finding and correction drills. 

For the second part of the day would be based on a distance ski, to allow you to work on elements of your technique as we ski with technical adjustments as we ski. ​
