Training on half a kilometre of

INDOOR SNOW!

The Beginning of this summer was 15 years since Impulse Racing ran their first training camp at Landgraaf. In that time we’ve taken hundreds of racers to this great facility and this summer, it’s become more important than ever for summer training mileage.

With most European glaciers closing this summer, indoor centres like Landgraaf have proved invaluable for training, especially given the guaranteed conditions and time that they can be used.

The benefits are fantastic:

• The costs are less than travel to the alps, accessibility at less than 4 hours from Calais. • It’s a one stop shop with the hotel on site, gym, restaurant and (for the parents) a bar. • Guaranteed conditions and no weather issues

This is why it’s a great idea to head out for a long weekend to train at this amazing facility in the east of the Netherlands. . Being over three times the length of any of the UK facilities, and with 5 lifts including a 6 man chair, means that training time here is valuable and trainees can make some great change to their skiing over a couple of days as the slope lends itself to working on technique as well as being able to set 30+ gate courses.

We run 4 day camps here that will see up to 20 hours on the hill, mixing technical and gate training. There is a great climbing park outside, similar to Go Ape in the UK.

With all of this and a hotel and restaurants on site, SnowWorld Landgraaf makes a great place for a weekends training for school teams and individuals without taking much, if any time away from school.

During 2022, we have run 5 camps for individuals and schools and have 6 planned for 2023, including the UK Schools European Indoor Race Festival which will be by invitation for year one and will incorporate training days, followed by a race event.

Any schools interested in taking a group training should contact the NSSA for details on office@Schoolssnowsports.co.uk

• June 1-4 • July 21-24 • August 25-28 • October 18-21 • October 24-27

October 21-24 sees the UK Schools European Indoor
