SNOWBOARD COACHING PROGRAM GUIDE
Now in their 18th year of operation, our Snowboard Coaching programs have an unmatched legacy in Ontario and have produced Multiple champions from the local hero to the World stage. Operating out of Mt. St. Louis-Moonstone, just north of Barrie on the 400 highway, team members cut their teeth in Ontario, before travelling to train and take on the best across North America and the World. Our program is recognized and sanctioned by the Provincial and National governing bodies, Snowboard Ontario and Canada Snowboard as part of the pathway to the Canadian National Team.

FREESTYLE BEGINNERS
WHERE TO START: PARK LABS or Private club program
If you are a parent of young beginner Freestyle Snowboarder, you are best to look into our affiliated beginner program provider Park Labs. We helped to create Park Labs, in order to help young riders who are new to the terrain park and are learning the foundational freestyle skills to prepare them for our programs. Park Labs have their own development contest series that Park Labs riders can participate in. Every year the best Park Labs participants will have primary access to the available open spots on the team. The Park Labs environment is very low pressure and is based on character collection, as skills are learned over the season. Click on any image below to head to the Park Labs website.
Intermediate to Advanced snowboarders - The Senders
After a season or two on Park Labs, you should now have a solid Snowboarding foundation under your belt. You will have some experience riding in the Terrain Park, competed in your first events and you're ready to take the next step up in Terrain Park feature size, technical manuevres and join The Senders.
When you get to The Senders, we will be building a lot of skills on top of the foundation learned through Park Labs. If you are missing this foundation, your progress will be a lot slower. You should be able to know how to generate pop, ride switch, quite comfortably hit small jumps and do some basic spins like 180s or 360s, although you may be far from perfect at doing so. You should also be able to ride on boxes and rails that are straight entry and be ready to ride the Intermediate/Advanced Terrain Park.

We have the option coming to train for single group of day sessions over the season during weekdays and after school. Weekdays feature considerably less traffic on the hill, allowing for more laps and better quality training. This is the only non-competitive option that we can offer, as there are no training on dates that conflict with events.
