Train with International Racer in the autumn enjoying excellent training on the La Grande Motte glacier, Tignes.

Tignes boasts a fast & efficient lift system, including 2 high speed underground trains (funicular railways) one of which transports you from Tignes Val Claret to the 'Panoramic Restaurant' on the Grand Motte Glacier.

 

Good access to hill space flat, moderate and steep terrain. All training lanes available for full days, allowing coaches to give their athletes necessary mileage.

 

On the glacier, athletes will concentrate on mechanical conditioning, including skill drills designed to develop and enhance sound fundamentals

Skill conditioning - challenging mechanics and consolidation of skills through mileage.

This is a full service camp.

Training Focus

 

The focus of the Tignes Fall camp is on the development, patterning, and mastering of the technical skills. Once mastered our goal is to then sequence technical skills from outside the course along with tactical sequencing to within markers, stubbies, gate corridors and finally a rhythmical sets.

Travel, Accident and medical insurance are mandatory requirements to train with an "International Racer" tour program.

International competition insurance that covers activities such as racing and race training under the supervision of an instructor is also mandatory to participate in an "International Racer" camps. "International Racer" staff will request proof of these items prior to training. Training may be denied if sufficient insurance has not been purchased.

[2] The balance of the camp payment must be paid at a minimum 30 days prior to camp starting to secure your place.
