These individuals are usually enrolled in the Killington Mountain School. Intensity is high, on and off the snow, as we work to prepare these elite racers for local, divisional, national, and international competition. We are proud to have trained a number of Olympic, National Team and top collegiate athletes. The Killington Freestyle Program offers coaching to young athletes age 8 and up. During training sessions skiers are grouped according to ability.
Initial instruction focuses on fundamentals with a heavy emphasis on having fun.
As skills develop, freestyle skiers are prepared for the excitement of entry-level competitions in Eastern Qualifier Series events, which are held throughout New England. Advanced skiers, many of whom attend the Killington Mountain School, compete in Eastern Championship Series events. These athletes have aspirations of qualifying for regional, national, and international competitions. Killington, as a hotbed of freestyle skiing, has produced many Olympic, National Team and professional freestyle skiers. Two programs are offered this year, a Hopeful program for riders 6-12 years old and an advanced program for riders 12 and up.
