Why choose Skieo?
To ensure your progression is always adapted to your pace, Skieo provides a team of two instructors for every 10 pupils during speed riding lessons. You will have a permanent radio connection with your instructors.
Training courses take place in La Clusaz, in the middle of the Aravis mountain range, where conditions are ideal for learning and experiencing the joys of speed riding.
The idea of the training course is to discover the sensations of speed riding. After some initial training on a safe beginners' slope, you will be able to progress step-by-step to other slopes to discover new sensations.
You will then be able to take off and gain altitude and improve on uneven and steeper slopes which will help you get used to the sensation of speed riding on real off-piste, on virgin slopes and far from the beaten track.
A short walk may be necessary to reach couloirs, to discover other places, and to discover the full potential of speed riding. You will then continue onto virgin snow where you can leave your own fresh tracks while floating down the slopes!
Several options are available to you, according to how much time you have:
2-day training course on a Saturday and Sunday
Half-day training courses
A minimum number of pilots is necessary for group training course: consult us for availability.

Skieo "Plus":
Once you have completed your introductory course with Skieo, you can contact our team to progress with private lessons.
The Skieo instructors can advise you of other students with a similar ability level so you can arrange a date that suits everyone for a private lesson and thus benefit from Skieo's personalised training at an attractive price.
