Pat
Sharples is at the forefront of the 'New School' of British freeskiing
and is one of the UK's best ever ski exports.
A
combination of ability, good looks, and friendly manner means that he
leaves a lasting impression on everyone he meets.
Pat
was the first Briton to turn pro and now competes in
a diverse range of "New School" disciplines from Freeriding
to Big Air, Skier Cross to Slopestyle, as well as running his very successful training camps.
He is head coach for the British Freeski Camps and Oakley ski team manager.
In addition he has recently written a book 'The Top 50 Resorts for Skiing and Snowboarding', available from Amazon and Snow & Rock, plus all good bookshops.

Who should go?
These camps are for season workers (or ex-workers who are out there) who want to push themselves to the next level. You can learn New School freestyle skiing from some of the UK's top Pro's.
Where?
Winter camps in 2006 will be based in Courchevel. Courses will be held in Monday to Friday afternoons to allow workers from Courchevel and nearby resorts to attend without work being affected.
What goes on?
We have courses for all standards of skiers from first time in the park to expert freestylers.
We’ll be taking on all elements of freestyle including Jumps, Halfpipe, Railslides, Moguls, plus Big Mountain freeriding. The actual day’s content may vary depending on the weather.
Everyday will be filmed and you can watch all the footage in the evenings in the bar with a beer, where we’ll be handing out prizes for the most improved riders of the day.
Who’s coaching?
Pat Sharples (Head coach, British Freeski Camps and Oakley team manager) will be taking groups of 8 max per day.
Guest pros will drop by during the season |
