A young freeskier shows off his skills at one of Salomon's freeski Grom Camps.

There’s a new trend in the freeskiing world, and it’s bringing plenty of new faces to the sport.

They’re called Freeski ‘Grom Camps’, and Salomon is sponsoring a series of them at UK indoor snow domes and outdoor dry ski slopes to help get everyone from novices to experts airborne, grinding and generally having fun. Camps are scheduled to run from January to August at the indoor snow slopes in Milton Keynes, Tamworth and Manchester and on outdoor slopes at Bracknell.

There is no age limit, and the age of campers has ranged from five to sixty. The camps are for all standards of skiers as well, from ‘never jumped before’ to sponsored riders. However, all campers must to be able to ski down the slope in a controlled and safe manner, according to entry regulations.

The environment is purposefully relaxed and non-competitive but the coaching is top notch. There are different groups for different levels of skiers to make sure everyone gets the very best coaching from the professional skiers.

The camps are run by Pat Sharples, team manager for Salomon and Oakley, and he employs top name coaches in the industry including Andy Bennett, James Woods, Joe Tyler, James Webb and Becky Hammond.

After each camp video highlights of the day are shown and campers rewarded with prizes for the most improved, hardest working and best tricks of the day.

The cost to the public of each camp is £30 (€34) and this covers slope fees and coaching.
