FREESTYLERZ DEVELOPMENT
The WFSL Development Program is designed for skiers who have desire to build strong freestyle skills with an eye on future competitive endeavors. Strong skiing fundamentals and a willingness to learn new progressions are a must. The Development Program maintains a general skills set, teaching all aspects of freestyle skiing such as moguls, slopestyle, halfpipe, aerials, and glade skiing, but with more advanced techniques. WFSL Development Program athletes will have the opportunity, at an additional cost, to attend trampoline, air bag training at our very own Ski Wentworth location, on snow training camps and will be encouraged to compete in all local freestyle competitions. Competition fees, CFSA membership, season pass/lift tickets are not included in the programs
