Ski Cross training camp dates for 2012 to be announced soon.
Ski cross training is hard to come by in the UK with only a handful of coaches with the experience and knowledge to run a safe and effective training environment. JJC training is fortunate enough to have access to all those coaches and therefore is the UK's premier training supplier for ski cross..
We have had success with our previous athletes competing on the world stage at X games, World Championships, Europa cup, world juniors and winning medals at FIS races and the Brits.
Off the back of the ski cross spectacle at the Vancouver Olympics a new young group of racers have set their focuses on becoming Britain's next crop of top flight ski cross racers. For the first time we are seeing athletes wishing to pursue ski cross from the get go.
This season we have switched our focus to the next generation of ski cross racers. A big part of our goal has been achieved and we now have three motivated and talented individuals working towards breaking through as consistent top level ski cross athletes. With so far only a small amount of time on a track they have shown us that they have the potential to go a long way in the sport with the right training and backing.
We plan to kick off preparation for the 2012/2013 season with a UK based camp educating the athletes on fitness, nutrition, psychology, ski prep and a few drills/start practice in a snow dome to give them an idea on what to expect and how best to prepare for our camps. The next stop will be a camp in the summer and autumn on the glaciers where we will be doing a lot of drills, a blend of alpine and ski cross training and lots and lots of starts and jump pressing.
The season program will consist of compulsory training weeks (Dates TBD) and further training and race weeks. There will be opportunity for athletes to race at all levels from the national tours up to world cup depending on coaches' assessment of ability and license level.
