Rippers and Gravity Camp

 

Sierra Resort offers two programs for skiers and snowboarders age 5 through 17 who are ready for a regular learning program but are not interested in competing on one of the Teams.

  1. The popular Rippers program, for youths ages 5 through 12, offers participants more flexibility this season with an extra day of training each weekend. Perfect for young skiers and riders who are still mastering the fundamentals, getting comfortable on their equipment and need supervision on the mountain, Rippers is available both Saturday and Sunday this year, costs $650 and includes a season pass.

  2. *NEW* Gravity Camp is a program for teens ages 13 through 17 that crave a non-competitive, social group for skiing and snowboarding. Professional instructors keep the group together and offer fundamental tips and basic instruction to help participants continue to grow their skills. The camp program is offered on Sundays and is $699 including a season pass.
