Definitely, no doubt about it, Chile. The immersion is incredible. The terrain is nothing like stuff in the US, and you get to say you went to Chile! Plus I've heard from friends that Evolve is an amazing camp and you get way more than you pay for!

From what I head Chile is more of a big mountain thing, whereas Windells is park oriented.
Do whichever one you like better. And if you decide on Evolve Chile then check out South American Snow Sessions, I had a few friends do it and they said it was absolutely amazing.

I would go to Chile without a doubt.  I mean if you go to hood youll be able to get some skiing in ,but the parks are usually a mess by noon because it gets so hot.  And youll be in spring slush the entire time. plus your at hood.  If there is not much of a price difference go to Chile.  Youll be able to shred pow down there as well as make some POW booters to try some new tricks which you cant do at Hood.  Not to mention if you actually want to ski its winter and the mountains are way sick.  And as far as spanish youll be with you coach and a bunch of other kids that speak english, Also half the people down there are from the US anyway.  DEF go to Evolve.

Depends on if you want a once-in-a-lifetime experience or just a fun fuckin time. If you want a learning experience full of culture, go to Chile. You'll be able to say you've ski'd in Chile, and you will never forget that. If you want to go learn some tricks and just fuck around and party go to Windells.

Personally, I'd go to Chile if I had the chance.

Ya thats a good point, If you have the chance now to go to Chile do it.  Chances are you will be able to go to Hood in the future.

true.

Chile, no doubt. You'll get to ski park too, but also powder, big mountains, bc booters, you'll learn spanish, learn about a different culture, you'll go to the beach, learn surfing, visit historical places, and you'll party too (how old are u btw?) In all, you'll have an amazing time and you'll never forget it, it'll be a unique experience. Im not saying you won't have fun at Windells, but as said before, its more likely you'll go to there in the future.

I would pick Chile without hesitation. Iv been there a couple of times, unfortunately didn't have the opportunity to ski there, but i have been there twice and its an awesome place. Mountains everywhere. Plus like others have said,  it will actually be winter, which would inevitably make for better conditions.

Windells , so when your walking around Govy the Trilium Lake Gypsies can snag you and take you back to the village in the woods.

:)

See you there

I think language it's not a problem, a lot of people speak english down here.
Colorado has a pretty decent park i guess and partying with 17 will not be a problem at all

You should come here!!! with 17 you can do pretty much everything here.... you get to ski pow, this year the park in my mountain (where evolve chile comes) is gonna be better than ever with a lot of new stuff, you get to surf, know different people ( a lot different than the US), know a different culture and reality, and you gonna party like crazy here, at least i do haha... plus how many times you are gonna get the chance to go to Chile, probably not too many.

having an opportunity to go to chile would be dope. You will be in a completely different culture and the skiing would be dope. You won't regret going to chile

if she even has to ask this question, then she needs toughening up.

half of NS needs some reality slapped into them.
they have never lived in Montgomery county, Maryland.

Don't pass up a chance to travel the world and see new cultures. Do you know how many people would LOVE to go visit Chile, let alone ski/snowboard (me included). Go be a world traveler, Windells will be there for a long time.
