The BP program for 09-10 will include a major new feature—the New England Secret Stashes. The BP coaches, augmented by local ski bums, will lead us to the legendary regional backcountry. Potential excursions such as DesLaurier’s home base at Bolton, mid-winter exploration of Mt. Washington accompanied by Brooks Dodge, (son of legendary guide Joe Dodge and originator of many of the lines at Tuckerman’s) the Stowe/Smuggler’s Notch backcountry, and world ranked free skier glam girl Asia Magriby’s Jay Peak are projected. Pilots will have input on locations and dates. These excursions will be optional, and available only to BP participants. Transportation and lift tickets, when applicable, will be the responsibility of the participants. Participants will also need climbing skins and appropriate backcountry equipment--- tele or AT set-ups, or, at least Alpine Trekkers, will be necessary.
Also, more air. Much more air.
Those who have participated in past BP programs can attest to its value If you hope for mastery of all terrain/all conditions skiing, the BP program is the best deal anywhere. The BP program is the only program of its kind in the nation—a full-season of break-through ski technique, lift-served back country access—true, all mountain, all conditions skiing. Unlike other advanced ski clinics—the BP program is full-season, allowing the coaches to observe and guide the participants on a recurring basis. The coaches include the top skiers in the Mad River Valley, which, as we know, means they are among the top skiers in America. They are supervised by one of Powder Magazine’s Top 100 skiers of the century, Skiing Magazine’s 50 most influential skiers of our time, and the nation’s only known CRO (Chief Recreational Officer), Sugarbush’s own homeboy, John “Eganbrutha” Egan, who will join the BP’s for several sessions. World famous guest coaches, Dean 'the Greek' Decas, the unofficial Mayor of Chamonix, RSN program host Darien Boyle, and Adam “D” Deslauriers, renowned ski and outdoor cinematographer, will also join us.
The BP program is the most cutting-edge instructional program within any resort sponsored ski-school in America, part of the Sugarbush Adventure Learning Center It is joined by the other adventure programs such as Mountaineering Blazers, Diamond Dogs, and Black Diamond Club in offering guidance and instruction for skiers of all ages who want to breakthrough and beyond the confines of the standard ski school curriculum. For those who wish a more traditional approach to the fundamentals of ski technique, Sugarbush offers a full PSIA menu for all ages, in both seasonal and day programs.
