Practice Information

Planning and preparation is the key to success!

Each practice, coaches will post the final details for the session on the LMRT bulletin board (located on your right when exiting the locker room).

Early-Start Practices
  • Occasionally, LMRT coaches will make arrangements to set gates prior to the normal practice time to train on special terrain or provide better conditions.
  • In these situations, older LMRT athletes will be given the opportunity to start practice prior to lift openings.
  • Members will be notified in advance of any early start practices via email.
Weather

We practice rain or shine:

  • As long as the mountain is open, LMRT will provide training.
  • A forecast for poor weather usually turns away skiers and leaves the entire mountain for those who show up.
  • These can be great training days!  Dress for the weather and maximize your opportunities.
Equipment
  • Helmets are required for all Giant Slalom practices.
  • No other special equipment is necessary.  However, check the equipment page for information on optional equipment and other recommendations from coaches.
  • Liberty Mountain offers larger storage lockers for season-long rentals. Availability is limited so contact the mountain early.
