The K1 Program is the first level of Alpine Ski Racing for 11-12 year olds. This is the start of their journey as a competitive skier. K1 racers build on their skills from Snowstar+, Kstar/Kstar+ and adapt to a more competitive atmosphere. This program is focused on developing technical skills in a fun competitive environment where each individual is encouraged to explore their capabilities.
| Program Info | Training begins with an early season camp in November (additional costs) and regular training in early December depending on conditions. K1 training involves free skiing with a coach through varied terrain, gate training, and skill development through drills and exercise. The training sessions run over two evening sessions plus the weekend to allow maximal time on snow to develop. Early season training may require day travel to Whistler or regional mountains depending on snow conditions. |
| Summer and Fall Dryland Training | While the on-hill season begins when snow falls, the dryland training season begins in June! Our optional summer and fall dryland sessions help prepare athletes for the season and they are included in the costs of the program! Details will be announced soon. Typically sessions are a weeknight and weekend from June through July. Fall sessions begin again in September through November. K1 athletes are expected to attend or keep good conditioning during the summer and fall in consultation with the Program Director or Head Coach. In addition, BC Alpine Coast Zone will schedule baseline fitness testing for all athletes. |
| Duration | Every Saturday and Sunday: 8.30am -2.30pm and Tuesday and Thursday evening training sessions (20 in total): 5:30 pm - 8:30 pm (shorter sessions in April) from December 2011 to April 2012. The on-snow training will begin in November with a fall camp for 4/5 days at Sun Peaks or Apex. During a winter season, K1 racers can expect to have from 45 to 65 days and nights of skiing depending on the weather conditions. The full schedule will be posted on our website. |
| Optional Races and Camps | In addition to regular training, there are also competitive opportunities through Coast Zone races which culminate with the annual Provincial championships. Athletes can expect 5-6 races within the Coast Zone and provincial races in any of the zones within BC. In addition, athletes may qualify for K1 Westerns, K1 Nationals and Whistler Cup. All races are additional costs and not included in program fees. Training camps are offered year round. They are optional and their cost is not included in the program fee. Training camps during the school year take place, if possible, during long weekends to minimize children’s absence from school.
