Epic Snowboard Camps
in New Zealand

Ride with us in New Zealand

THE WHO

CAMP3's one and two-week long snowboard camps are for those riders looking to surround themselves with other like-minded shredders and achieve some real progression in their riding while in New Zealand.

The one-week, all-mountain snowboard camps are for intermediate and advanced riders looking to progress in all-mountain freeride and freestyle environments. The two-week, terrain-specific, snowboard progression camps are for those looking to break through the glass ceiling in specific terrain; from the parks and pipes at Cardrona to the steeps, drops and gullies at TC.

We also have instructor training camps, for certified snowboard instructors aiming to progress onto the higher levels of certification.

"For so many years I had totally lost faith in training and found it to be a waste of money and time. But after last year's experience riding with you all, I can totally see myself spending a whole season with CAMP3 learning and enjoying riding. Although it's a bit late, I'm happy that I've found the right people! :)"

Our one-week snowboard camps are freeride, freestyle or carve-focused, and aimed at intermediate to low-advanced riders. The camps are 4 days in length over a 5-day window, with approximately 5hrs of coaching per day.

Our two-week progression camps are terrain-focused, meaning the majority of the camp builds skills towards one specific environment, like the park and pipe or high-performance carving. These camps are 8 days over a 12-day window, with approximately 5hrs of coaching per day.

We typically run Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday (with Wednesday as a weather day, should it be needed).

Video feedback is used a lot during these camps and footage will be made available for riders to take away with them. Our groups have a maximum of six people per group. AND... we have use of the snowsports lift line priority at Cardrona and Treble Cone. Bring on the fast laps!

Note that all members joining camps for the first time in a season are required to fill out two forms; a liability waiver form and an individual details form. The forms can be found here.

"I progressed more than I thought possible, but also came away with so many tools and things to keep working on moving forward. The coaching was exceptional, but the real highlight I found was being part of the community of like-minded people and a vibe that made every day a banger."
