Description
Wish to have more experience in how to access this fairytale stuff that all the crazy-good skiers and snowboarders get all gooey about? SLOWderchase is aimed at getting you into the best powder, offering the oppertunity to improve your own riding skills. Like a regular Powderchase: only the date is set for these powder trips into the Alps. What our destination will be, is decided last-minute by snow and weather forecasts. We’re warning you: your life will never be the same after this!
It’s practically identical to a regular Powderchase but aimed at people who want to improve their backcountry riding skills through hard training (as said – pure powder pleasure). All at a much easier pace with a group that has the same intentions. For all three days you will be accompanied by both a certified local instructor and a highly experienced tailguide from Powderchase that will show you little tricks to move around the backcountry easier and more efficient, so you have more energy to have fun!
The SLOWderchase will take place during the regular Powderchase that is held this weekend, but will follow its own daily schedule.
