Why Core Snowboard CampsMessage from the Team
 We’ve been operating Core Camps for nearly a decade now and we’ve worked hard to create the ultimate winter snowboard camp experience for you both on, and off the mountains. It’s all about improving your riding, hanging with riders from around the world and living the snowboard dream in Whistler. From our top-notch professional coaches and our comfortable and welcoming housing, to our mountain knowledge and all of the extra camp inclusions, we have tailored the complete camp experience. Guaranteed to make you fall in love with the sport all over again, it will open your eyes to limitless possibilities. Core Camps will change your life and make you want to move here!! It’ll be the best winter snowboard camp experience of your life! Specially Chosen Professional Coaches
 The right coach makes all the difference to your snowboard camp experience, which is why we have carefully compiled an all-star list (cast) of experienced and committed local Canadian coaches and pros. We are all fully certified with years of coaching experience, are long time locals with intimate knowledge of Whistler-Blackcomb and its sweet-spots, and have larger-than-life personalities. Our passion for coaching and dedication to helping you improve is obvious. You’ll advance your overall free-riding and freestyle skills all over the mountains with the best coaches in the biz! And of course we can’t say that you won’t learn a thing or two on the chairlifts! Unrivaled Mountain Knowledge
 We have been living and riding in Whistler for most of our lives, and it’s because of this that we know the absolute best spots to ride- every hidden powder run and secret spot on the mountains! Our excitement to share our knowledge provides campers an unparalleled riding experience, and campers always express their thanks for this! Imagine arriving at a new resort and suddenly riding only the best terrain for every day’s snow conditions. Yes please! This important point really does make all the difference. We know all the secret spots, hidden fun runs, jump runs, powder runs behind walls of trees, deep powder spots, untracked powder runs, cool tree runs, hidden cliffs and drops, deserted groomers and cruisers. We’ve hit every jump, every bump and every jib around every corner! Even seasoned Whistler locals don’t know the spots we know- we’re that good. Whistler and Blackcomb’s terrain is huge- you’ll understand when you get here! Lowest Camper-to-Coach Ratio in the Biz
 Our small groups mean lots of personal feedback, focus and attention. Training within a small group of a similar level is a great way to promote learning and to keep it personal. We have the lowest camper-to-coach ratio, which averages 4:1 with an absolute maximum of 5:1. We also keep our overall weekly campers number low so that everybody really gets to know each other. The only problem with this is that it makes it more difficult for you to leave! Improvement and Confidence
 Snowboarding with someone at a higher level than you- visually seeing it done right- riding in a small group where everyone is pushing each other to succeed- and focused, immediate feedback is the fastest way to improvement. This is how it’s done with Core Camps! You push yourself, your confidence and each other every day, and sometimes without even knowing it! Combine all of this with riding the best terrain of the day and a smiling, positive group – it will all catapult your progress and comfort level. Tried, tested and true, this results in real snowboard improvement. That’s how we roll. testimonials >> All levels welcome
 We’re excited to offer camps for all levels of snowboarders, from absolute first-time riders to aspiring pro athletes and every level in between. While most of our campers are different levels of intermediate riders, we also coach beginners to become rippers who fall in love with snowboarding! We offer custom packages for beginner snowboarders, and also assist in getting riders ready for competitions and for the sponsored/pro world of snowboarding. No matter what your level of riding, you will benefit from training with our coaches and completely improve your free-riding and freestyle with us! Core Snowboard Camp's level chart >> Central Campus Location: 30 meters from Gondola
 Core Camps is the only snowboard camp that has a village campus, and we’re right beside the gondolas. We can’t get any closer! We’re located in the Hilton Whistler Resort Hotel, directly beside the Whistler and Blackcomb gondolas! Campers keep all of their gear here at the campus, which saves them from lugging it around. Here at the campus we are outfitted with a relaxing lounge with leather sofas, WIFI, and kitchen. We have video projection rooms for rider video-analysis, a waxing & tuning room, individual storage and a heated gear storage room. The tunes are always playing and the atmosphere is always chill. Comfortable Accommodation
 Core Camps provides clean, bright and modern housing for all of our campers. All of our houses have WIFI, laundry facilities, cable TV, phones, bedding and fully supplied kitchens. Each house is fully furnished with two beds in each room. The house locations range from walking distance to the village to a short bus ride (5-10 minutes). We’re also unique in offering the option of a home stay experience for riders who would like their own room and a quieter evening atmosphere. Home stay provides a private room and 3 meals a day in the homes of great local Whistler families. With space available, we can be flexible with late arrivals, early arrivals, camp extensions, accommodation extensions and friends, couples and groups wanting to stay together. The Full Monty
 Our attention to detail means your camp experience is the complete package! We’re in the business of providing an unparalleled mountain camp with all the bells and whistles, not to mention taking care of the small details. We aim to create unforgettable memories for you. We include weekend lift tickets, local bus passes, hot tub-sauna-pool passes, and plenty of free stuff from our sponsors. We only offer full season passes, not ‘mid week’ season passes. From the moment you arrive here in Whistler you are taken care of with the highest level of service campers have come to expect from us. The only thing you are responsible is for your food and drink. We are flexible on all issues surrounding your stay, whatever will enhance it for you is what we will strive to do! And when the chairlifts stop, our evening activities and social events begin. If you have the energy, we have a big list of fun stuff to experience each night. The Social Aspect
 The social aspect of Core Camps is also something that brings campers back year after year. We plan lots of evening activities and social events in and around Whistler. Your after-riding and weekend schedule can be as busy or mellow as you choose. Here are some things you can do: #1 Resort in North America
 This is THE place to snowboard! Whistler-Blackcomb is Canada's top snowboarding destination and one of the very best in the world. The terrain will blow your mind!! You can ride virtually every type of terrain that you can imagine here in Whistler – endless acres of powder runs, parks, pipes, tree runs, chutes, pillow lines, cliffs, cornices, jump runs, wind lips, snowboard cross tracks, smooth groomers, natural jibs, hips, rollers, powder bowls…(did we miss anything?!). It’s all here, and we know where and how to ride it; heck, we can’t wait to ride it! The two mountains are joined at the base by a pedestrian village with all the amenities you'd expect from a town that draws 2 million visitors a year from around the world.
