The 2008~09 season was incredible. We had a whole bunch of cool and
unique guys and girls train with us this season and a lot of returning
campers pushing their limits as well. Big backcountry jump days, deep
powder runs, terrain park improvement, Core night park action, secret
pillow fields, cornices, tree runs...you name it, we did it all.
From novice riders sliding boxes and riding powder for the first time
to seasoned returning campers grabbing their inverts, sticking larger
cliffs and every level and experience in between.Good times, great memories, huge improvement and the end of the season video to prove it.
From all of the staff and coaches - A huge “Thank You” to all of the
great campers who allowed us to be a part of their winter season! It
was an amazing season with all of you guys here and keep riding on.

Activites
Overall, this was the highlight of my summer!
Camps: Friday, April 24, 2009
Who we are:
what's included:
• Interactive coaching environment. Our coaches are not only professionals, but genuinely love kids and love coaching. Our coaching groups provide a better opportunity for campers to progress, as your coach will get to know you during the week and anticipate your needs and goals.
• Value. Everything is included in the camp price. ALL scheduled activities (extra charge for some optional activities) , ALL meals including dinner, a free camp T-Shirt and a camp video.
• Private pipe, race lanes, and park. Our on-hill facility is world class with private pipe, race lane, groomed area, terrain park, and lots of other terrain. Because we limit the amount of campers that we can accept each session, our park is never crowded. This means less time standing around waiting your turn, which is the case at the busier camps, and more time for you to focus on your goals!
• Supervision. We don't hold back the older campers or forget about the younger ones. All campers under 19 are supervised 24 hrs by our live-in hotel staff.
• Luxury-suites, not crowded dorms or small hotel rooms. The suites are equipped with a full-kitchen, living area, 2 bathrooms, 2 bedrooms and a big balcony to enjoy the beautiful mountain views! There is also a heated pool, huge jacuzzi, basketball court and volleyball net. The resort is located just minutes from the base of the hill, too, so there is no traveling to get to the lifts - they're just a short walk from breakfast!
• All meals are included in the price of the camp. Some other camps don't provide you with dinner. This can add-up to $100's of additional dollars to the price of your camp.
• No hiking. Our lifts run all day.
• Walk to the lifts. Some of the other camps have a 30 minute bus ride just to get to the hill but at our camp you can walk there in 5 min after you eat breakfast at a nice restaurant.

Good times in the backcountry. Some of the crew took their Level 1 Avalanche
course, so we set out for a backcountry trip to build a road gap,
ride some pillow fields and spend the night in a cool cabin.
No roads for hours, no tracks but our
own and we were surrounded by huge mountain peaks. After building a
nice road gap jump, we hit it until well after sundown. Then we rode
back to the front door of the cabin and chilled for the night. Good
food, good music and great company.
We woke up to about 15cms of fresh snow overnight. After a pretty funny
cook up on the stove, we headed out to ride a powder pillow
field for the day.
Good times, a great crew, amazing powder and funny stories. www.corecamps.com

How is it April already?! It seems like just yesterday we were getting daily powder dumps and I was riding untouched trees… But wait, that wasn’t very long ago! That’s what spring riding is all about here on these West Coast mountains. So always remember “If it’s raining in the village, it’s snowing in the alpine!”
This week I took it easy, hitting up groomers all over Blackcomb. The snow is super fun but only after a hot wax! The warmer temperatures have definitely changed the snow conditions, making it softer and slushy near the bottom. I rode mainly the Crystal zone, everything was groomed and the sun was out! We then spent most of the weekend soaking in the rays from Merlin’s patio; it’s all about the après!
Spring has hit us full force; Sunny blue bird days followed by cloudy stormy days and you can’t walk through the village without seeing goggle tans all over. The TELUS World Ski & Snowboard festival is only 7 days away and the parks are groomed to perfection, so what you waiting for?! Throw some wax on those shred sticks, some zinc on those cheeks and come on up for a visit!
Keep on Shredding
