| Weekdays start with making your way to Blackcomb Daylodge. You have several options, the local bus service, walking into the village or a taxi ride. Taxi should not cost much more than CAN$10 or walking will take around ten minutes from most houses. Upon arrival at the lodge you have several options: |
- Grab a coffee and breakfast at the Wizard Grill before suiting up |
- Catch a ride on the Wizard and Solar Coaster chairs and slip in a few runs before lessons start. Jersey Cream or Ross' Gold will get the blood pumping. |
- Head up to our alpine meeting place - the Rendezvous Lodge and take in the scenery over a hot chocolate or Eggs Benny. There's also an espresso bar for the coffee cravers. |
| |
Once you've satisfied your cravings for cholesterol and/or fresh tracks, we ask that you make your way to the meeting area at the bottom of the Rendezvous lodge for 9:30 a.m. where lessons begin with a few bad jokes from your coaches at 9:45 |
| |
| A ski-off may be necessary on the first day of a new tour to assess ability levels and match skiers to the appropriate groups. And then… we're off! We'll explore all that Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains have to offer while focusing on ski improvement through a combination of tips, exercises, terrain adaptation and lots and lots of mileage! |
| |
| We'll break for a well-deserved lunch at one of several on-mountain restaurants for about an hour before resuming the day's lesson until 3 p.m. Then it's time to kick back and relax over drinks at Merlin's and celebrate the day's achievements with new friends. |
| |
| Make sure to get your beauty sleep on Tuesday nights because we start off each Wednesday morning with a video session. Your skiing will be taped and later in the day your coach will take you to the video booth where you'll get a chance to see yourself in action. More than just a laugh…Video analysis is a useful tool in providing individual feedback for ski improvement. |
| |
| Friday's Après-ski wraps up a great week at a local restaurant in the village. Prizes are handed out to a noteworthy student from each group and your coach will present you a written progress report complete with a personal photo from the Wednesday video session. It's an event not to be missed! |
