Which would help me out the most, i want to learn a lot of new tricks and these are my options. windells for a week, or mount hood summer ski camp for 2 weeks? i was wondering if i would learn more in the week at windells or the two weeks at mt.hood? and i want to have a decent sized jump.

2 weeks at MHSSC is the way to go. I'v been a coach there for a few years and iv seen lots of kids learn their new trick in the last hour of the last day. The second week is key to dialing new tricks and pushing yourself past where you were the last day of your regular season. hope to see you there!

If I were you I'd definately go with the 2 weeks at MHSSC. In my opinion twice the amount of time on snow would mean twice as much progression. Plus the guys at MHSSC are super chill and friendly.

no offense to anyone who went to MHSSC,  it just seems kinda lame and boring compared to windells. Went to windells loved it. WINDELLS 1 week>MHSSC 2 weeks

if you realy love skiing you should nt even be wondering. 2 weeks.
always better.

one week is generally the time you need to get back at your regular level if you are a decent skier.
2nd week is dedicated to learning.

plus in 2 week you have way more time so you can ski more relax and wont do any stupid things.

you wont learn anything if you are just focused on that. skiing is all about fun. not progression. progression generally comes along with fun.

while painful things can happen if you re not feeling stuff.

yeah 2 at mhssc for sure as ice cream said the 2nd week is key i went for two last year and learned like 1 or 2 tricks the first week and then a million the second week. So definitely two weeks mhssc was my best two weeks of the summer you won't regret it

haha i didn't realize mt hood summer ski camp was the name. thats why i was confused.
go to the 2 week camp. more time on the snow means more tricks learned.
