NEW! Advanced Camp – Shred on a budget for 2/3/4 weeks

inka — Thu, 25 Apr 2013 10:28:33 +0000

Have the best summer of your life in Les 2 Alpes. This summer you can shred Europe’s biggest summer snowpark and make your trip more affordable. If you want to ride with your friends and have fun without coaches and enjoy the afternoon activities without Paromcamps camp hostesses, this is the camp for you. Getting back to the village from the glacier its time to enjoy the summer heat and numerous activities not to mention the great night life in the village.

Snowpark

Les 2 Alpes summerpark is located at an altitude of 3200m and is by far the best and most versatile European shredding place during the summer. The park is designed as much for snowboarders as for New School skiers. You will find three different areas with loads of jumps, rails and two boardercross runs, as well as a half-pipe and a super-pipe with their own lift. Both rails and kickers have new lines designed for this summer. Also half-pipe locations are renewed from last season. Les 2 Alpes is simply great for all levels of riders. Lets not forget the record breaking amount of snow – nearly 3 meters will easily last until end of the summer. It doesn’t matter if you’re a beginner or a pro, you will find the great spots here.

Corners, wallrides and the other nice obstacles give added value to the park without forgetting the park’s own rail area.

The day at the glacier will be crowned with a barbecue as the Cool Zone. After riding, lounging in the beach chairs at the Cool Zone, listening to music and getting tanned is all part of the daily routine. The Cool Zone is full of riders from around the world, so it’s a great place to make new friends. As the snow park’s lift are closing you can still continue your day by jibbing and hiking the rails and kickers. Les 2 Alpes gondola will run late afternoon.

Village and Activities

Les 2 Alpes is a small idyllic Alpine village with good services. In a nutshell, you’ll find here everything you need for a great holiday. Multiple skate/Snowboard/ski-shops, restaurants for all tastes, grocery stores etc. are all located along the 2km main road. Bakeries and internet cafes are also in every street corner.

After riding in the glacier the activities in the village are endless. Change your swim wear and head to the pools or mountain lake at the end of the village.

Rasmus started out as an alpine skier, winning the Finnish giant slalom championship and placing in numerous other prestigious competitions. At some point, however, he chose to spend his prize money on nothing else than a pair of freestyle skis, and has since been completely drawn into new school skiing. His hometown resort Kasurila offers a great snowpark for training, and the hard work is paying off both in domestic and international competitions. Last year Rasmus won the rail-competition in Whistler-Blackcomb, Canada. In addition to skiing Rasmus spends his free time jumping trampoline and skateboarding.
