MOGUL TECHNICAL CAMP II Kitzsteinhorn Glacier · Kaprun, Austria 1–4 December 2026 · 4 Days Skiing · Max 7 Skiers · €860 per person

You will not ski moguls on day one. You will build them.

Most skiers are afraid of moguls because they encounter them fully formed — steep, deep, unforgiving — and are expected to perform in terrain that was built by someone else, shaped by thousands of turns before theirs, designed by nobody with their skiing in mind.

I do not coach that way.

In my camp the mogul line does not exist when you arrive. We build it together — turn by turn, run by run, over four days on the glacier. And by the time the line is deep enough to look intimidating, you are the person who made it. You cannot be frightened by something you built yourself.

This is the concept. And it changes everything.

How It Works

We begin on a marked corridor. The line is set — the entry point, the turn points, the exit. The terrain is flat. There are no bumps. There is nothing to fear and nothing to react to — only the movement pattern to learn, the line to commit to and the turn to execute.

We ski that corridor. Again and again. With exercises that build from basic to advanced, from slow to dynamic, from easy terrain to increasing gradient. The focus is entirely on movement — edge control, timing, pressure, rhythm, upper and lower body working independently.

And as we ski the corridor, something happens to the snow.

Our turns shape it. The entries carve in. The pivots round out. The exits push the snow back. The line begins to form — not because we put it there, but because we skied it. Run by run the corridor develops depth. The walls grow. The rut becomes real.

By day three you are skiing a genuine mogul line. By day four it is deep, demanding and — to anyone watching from outside — intimidating.

But not to you. Because you made every centimetre of it. You were there when it was flat. You were there when it was shallow. You felt it grow under your skis and you grew with it. The line that looks frightening from the outside is the line you know better than anyone on the mountain.

That is the confidence this camp builds. Not false confidence — not encouragement and enthusiasm. Real confidence, earned turn by turn, built into your body through repetition on terrain you understand completely because you created it.

December on the Kitzsteinhorn

By early December the glacier snowpack is deeper and more settled than November. Our corridor develops more quickly, reaches greater depth and by day four the line is genuinely serious. The conditions in early December on the Kitzsteinhorn are among the finest I coach on all season — reliable, consistent and ideal for the kind of repeated technical work this method demands.

What We Work On

Line choice and commitment Reading the mogul field before you enter it. Identifying the line that suits your current technical level. Committing to it and executing it rather than improvising run by run.

Fundamental movement patterns The movements that make mogul skiing work — edge control, pressure management, timing of the turn initiation, upper and lower body separation. Built first on easier terrain then transferred progressively into the bumps.

Rhythm and flow From conscious effort to automatic execution. This is what separates skiers who survive moguls from skiers who ski them. It does not happen in one camp — but it starts here.

Absorption and speed control Once your line choice and movement patterns are established we introduce true absorption technique. Controlling speed actively, changing lines under pressure, managing the physical demands of deep rutt skiing.

Mindset Moguls are not something that happens to you. They are terrain you ski. That shift in perspective is the most important thing I teach in this camp — and it changes how you approach every other form of difficult terrain as well.

The Programme

On snow daily:

• Morning coaching session — 09:00 to 11:45
• Afternoon coaching session — 13:00 to 15:30
• Real-time radio coaching throughout every run (Cardo system)
• Individual video analysis every afternoon

How the four days build:

First-time participants: Line choice fundamentals, mogul entry, basic movement patterns and ski control in variable terrain. You will be skiing a genuine mogul line by day four — built by your own turns on terrain that was flat when you arrived.

Returning participants from the November edition: We pick up where November left off. The line forms faster, the standard is higher and we push further into absorption technique and rutt line skiing under real pressure. Two weeks apart has let the November learning consolidate in your body. You arrive skiing better than you left and we take that further across four more days.

Third visit and beyond: Straight-line rutt skiing — controlling speed actively, changing lines, absorbing precisely, operating with full technical freedom in serious mogul terrain.

An Honest Note

Four days will not make you a mogul expert and I will not tell you otherwise.

What four days will do is give you a clear technical understanding of what needs to happen, the movement patterns to begin making it happen and the tools to continue developing on your own after you leave Kaprun. The mindset shift happens here. The full mastery takes longer — and that is true of every worthwhile technical skill.

Come with realistic expectations and genuine commitment to the process. You will leave with both clarity and direction.

A Second Chance — For Those Who Were Here in November

This camp runs two weeks after the November edition. That gap is not accidental.

Something happens in the two weeks between camps that no amount of deliberate practice produces — consolidation. The movements you learned in November settle into your nervous system while you are not thinking about them. The line you built becomes a memory your body carries rather than a technique your mind manages.

You arrive in December with a foundation that November built and two weeks of unconscious processing behind it. Returning participants consistently make more progress in their second camp than their first — even though the second camp is harder. The groundwork is done. The fear is gone. The method is familiar. Now we build on it.

If you attended the November camp and thought — I need more of this — this is more of this.

If I were a skier at your level, I would book both.

Equipment

Shorter more agile skis perform better in moguls than a long carving setup. If you have a shorter radius ski bring it. If not your regular skis will work — but keep this in mind for your next equipment decision.

Dress for high-volume technical skiing. You will work hard across four days.

What Is Included

• 4 full days of mogul-specific on-snow coaching
• Dedicated private corridor — built and shaped by the group across the camp
• Progressive terrain build — from flat corridor to deep rutt line
• Real-time radio coaching every session (Cardo system)
• Daily individual video analysis
• Maximum 7 skiers — personal attention on every run

Not included: Accommodation, lift pass, meals, travel and insurance are organised independently. I am happy to recommend accommodation in Kaprun on request.

Who I Want at This Camp

Advanced skiers with a solid technical base and the right mindset. You ski short turns confidently on red slopes, you move actively and athletically on your skis and you are willing to ski the same line twenty times in a row because you understand that is how skiing actually improves.

You do not need previous mogul experience. In some ways skiers without mogul habits are easier to coach — there is nothing to unlearn.

This camp works particularly well for skiers preparing for Austrian Level 3 or Level 4 instructor certification. Mogul skiing is examined at both levels and I know exactly what that standard requires. But you do not need a certification goal to belong here. You need to want to ski moguls with control, flow and genuine confidence.

Minimum requirements:

• Short turns skied confidently on red slopes
• Control on steep and variable terrain
• Active athletic movement on your skis
• Genuine openness to feedback and repetition

Why This Camp. Why Me.

I hold the Austrian Staatlicher Level 4 and the Hungarian Level 4 — the highest coaching certifications in both systems. My qualifications have been formally recognised and converted by the Italian Maestro di Sci programme, IASI Ireland at Level 4 and PSIA USA at Level 3. Five national systems. One standard.

I have represented Austria and Hungary at three Interski Congresses — Cran-Montana 2003, St. Anton am Arlberg 2011, Pamporovo 2019 — and two IVSI Congresses in Lech-Zürs and Hakuba Japan, as a member of the Austrian Telemark Demo Team and the Interski Delegation. As a former examiner and coach at Snowsports Academy Austria I have assessed and certified ski instructors at the highest levels of the Austrian system.

Over 30 seasons I have coached skiers across Austria, Hungary, Holland, Belgium, Russia, Georgia, Japan, China, the USA, New Zealand and Italy.

I developed the corridor method because I watched too many good skiers fail in moguls not from lack of ability but from lack of the right entry point. Building the line solves that problem. It works every time. Two camps two weeks apart is the most powerful version of that method I have found.
