Giants Ridge’s Alpine D-Team is a weekly program that offers a fun introduction to the world of skiing competition for alpine racing. The “D” stands for “Development” as our talented coaching staff focuses on more than just scores and times.
Our Coaches put an emphasis on rounding out the student’s skill set as all-mountain skiers while helping apply these skills to their speed and control on the racecourse. The D-Team is for skiers ages 5-18.
The D-Team program is designed as an introduction to the more technical aspects of skiing, IT IS NOT A PROGRAM FOR FIRST TIME SKIERS. All skiers must also be able to ride Helsinki chairlift independently.

$250 per student. Lift tickets are NOT included in pricing
Ages 5-18 (Ages as of September 1, 2024)

*Informational meeting: November 14,2024 @ 6pm In Giants Ridge Main Chalet on the 2nd Floor Great Room. This Meeting is for new and returning D-team athletes, or for anyone wanting to find out more information on our team
