“The Slackcountry Freeride sessions are designed for experienced Snowboarders searching for fresh lines away from the beaten track and those looking to gain knowledge and insight into the World of the Backcountry just beyond”.

The high altitude Freeride mecca of Tignes is famous for its abundance of Freeride terrain that is easily accessed straight of the lifts. It is less well known however, for its abundance of Slackcountry terrain hidden in the bowls, valleys and peaks just beyond the resort boundaries.

The idea behind this Slackcountry Freeride course is to explore and ride all that Tignes has to offer, riding the perfectly groomed pistes and inbound terrain from the lifts and exploring beyond with short hikes or the use of a Splitboard to venture further afield.

With the emphasis, as always, on Mountain Safety, the ‘Slackcountry Freeride sessions’ will teach you how to look at, respect and learn from the terrain in which you ride and increase your awareness for the high mountains helping you develop your ability and confidence to tour, climb and ride in safety amongst the high peaks.

My Slackcountry Freeride sessions provide a fun and exciting week of pure uncompromised Freeriding.

For this course we recommend you stay at the dragonlodge in the heart of Tignes le lac. Make your individual booking for the 15th to 22nd March AT THE DRAGONLODGE.COM quoting you are part of  the McNab snowboarding group.
