Skiing Learn to ski off-piste B

This course focuses on off-piste skiing technique. Anyone who has always wanted to go on a ski tour but has rarely or never skied off-piste will receive inputs on how to ski in unprepaired terrain. The course is aimed in particular at tour-skiers who want to improve their skiing technique, but also at piste skiers who want to take turns off the slopes.

Warning, this is not a freeride course. We always move in the immediate distance of the slopes and to the left and right of the slope edge. We do not use climbing aids such as snowshoes and skins.

The course location depends on the actuall local snow conditions. If the snow conditions are unfavorable for learning to drive off-piste, the course can be canceled.

As a rule, the journey takes place individually and is always coordinated with a public transport connection. Occasionally we travel by minibus.

The price includes lessons with certified ski instructors.

The following costs are at the expense of the participants:

• Lunch
• lift pass
• Travel costs by public transport
• rental of equipment

The detailed programme will be sent by e-mail shortly before the course starts. We reserve the right to cancel the course at short notice if the number of participants is too low.

University sports does not provide snow sports equipment.

Please come in appropriate and own ski clothing/equipment (ski, skiboots, gloves and sunglasses or ski goggles). Wide skis (touring ski or alpine ski) have the advantage of being more versatile in off-piste terrain. University sports does not provide snow sports equipment.

Wearing a helmet is compulsory. We recommend wearing a back armor as additional protective equipment as well (if you do not carry a backpack).

It's up to the participants.
