❓Everything you need to know about these work placements

Want to leave the pistes behind and discover some of the best off-piste terrain in Sainte-Foy? Evolution 2 freeride courses give you the opportunity to explore the off-piste routes of Sainte-Foy-Tarentaise, accompanied by an instructor who knows the ski area and its terrain inside out.

Two courses, one goal: make the most of freeride skiing

Adult Freeride Course :

The adult freeride course is designed for strong skiers who are already comfortable off-piste and want to take their skiing further.

Accompanied by an Evolution 2 instructor, you will explore different types of terrain and off-piste routes around Sainte-Foy-Tarentaise while working on your technique in ungroomed snow. The course is also open to snowboarders with good off-piste skills.

A great opportunity to discover new areas, refine your lines and make the most of the day's conditions without having to plan your own route.

Teen Freeride Course :

The teen freeride course is designed for young skiers who have completed the required Junior Academy levels and are already comfortable skiing off-piste.

Accompanied by an Evolution 2 instructor, teenagers will progressively discover new terrain and develop their skills and independence in the mountains: technique, terrain awareness, line choice and adapting to changing conditions.

An ideal format for experienced young skiers who want to continue improving their freeride skills while discovering what Sainte-Foy-Tarentaise has to offer.

DVA Training – Learn the Right Off-Piste Safety Skills

Before heading out to explore off-piste terrain, take the time to practise using a DVA (avalanche transceiver) during a 3-hour group session on Sunday afternoon.

Accompanied by an Evolution 2 instructor, you will learn how to use your safety equipment and practise the different stages of a DVA search through hands-on exercises.

This session is open to skiers who want to familiarise themselves with their safety equipment, refresh their safety skills and build confidence before heading off-piste.

Routes are adapted to the group's level and to the snow and weather conditions on the day.

💚 Key information

Safety equipment

For adults, a safety pack including an avalanche transceiver (DVA), shovel and probe can be rented when booking.
For teenagers, safety equipment is included in the course price.

Participation requirements

The freeride course is designed for adults and teenagers with a good technical skiing level, both on and off-piste. Good off-piste skiing skills are essential to take part. A good level of fitness is also recommended, as off-piste skiing requires more physical effort than skiing on groomed pistes.
The programme and routes are adapted by the instructor to the group's level and the conditions on the day.

Why ski with a guide at this level?

Even with a very good skiing level, being fully independent off-piste requires specific mountain knowledge. Reading the terrain, choosing the right route and adapting to changing conditions are all essential skills that take experience.

Skiing with an instructor is also a great opportunity to discover new areas, keep improving and make the most of your day without having to plan the route yourself.

The added benefit? You get professional feedback on your technique and can continue to progress, even as an experienced skier.
