The Freestyle Training Center (FTC) on Palmer. The FTC is the premier summer training center for freestyle skiing and snowboarding. Features include progressive jump lines, rails, boxes, half pipe and an airbag for practicing those hard to land tricks! Athletes and campers of all ages and levels can be found training in the FTC. 

Features are made using real snow, allowing skiers/riders to dial in tricks in an actual outdoor terrain park environment. 

The majority of camp will be spent in the FTC. The FTC is a fun, progressive learning space full of supportive friends in a welcoming environment, however, the FTC and terrain parks in general can sometimes be a bit hectic and crowded. Please be sure your child is ready for this environment prior to signing up for camp. They must be able to listen to the instruction of their coaches in order to stay safe. Please inquire with the camp office for more specifics.

Each camper must pay a non-refundable $100 deposit to register for camp and secure their spot. Full payment is due two weeks from the camp start date. If you must cancel your camp enrollment for any reason, the amount paid, less the deposit, may be refunded if the cancellation request is received outside of 72 hours from the camp start date. Any cancellation request received within 72 hours of the camp start date, or no-shows may result in the forfeiture of all camp payments.
