Welcome to the JDP Track Attack Program

JDP Track Attack is a program for young skiers aged 9-12 who wish to improve their overall cross-country ski skills and fitness in a fun group environment. The expectation is that skiers have a base level of ski experience and fitness, such as a knowledge of diagonal stride, double poling, herringbone bone and snow plow.

Initial groups will be determined by age, but we will accommodate switches once we get to know your skiers.

Our aim is to provide a fun program that will enhance the skiers’ enjoyment of the sport and increase their overall ski skills. Sessions will have a base element of skill instruction as well as plenty of time simply skiing with the group, but will also make use of games and drills to enhance learning, improve fitness and enjoyment. While we will invite skiers to enter races or events if they are interested, this is not a racing group and is not intended to train skiers to race.

* Note that this is not a beginner's learn to ski group.

Another program called "JDP Start to Glide" will offer the basics of cross-country skiing for the 9 to 12-year-olds new to the sport.
