Mount Baldy Park Labs Half Day Intro to Freestyle Skiing
Saturday: Saturdays, 1-4pm. $499
Mount Baldy Park Labs half day is the program to give freestyle a try at Mount Baldy. Park Labs half day will focus on core skiing skills that are essential to becoming a park skier. These skills include finding a centered balanced position on your skis, how to separate your upper and lower body that will be required when learning tricks and basic switch skiing so you can handle yourself coming out of a trick switch. In the park we will focus on how to pop off a take-off, how to grab your skis. On boxes we will focus on 50/50 (going straight across). The program will give your skier some core fundamentals they need to build to the next level.
