You really shouldn't base what camp you go to on which pros will be there. COC has a sick park, but there is always big lines for the T-Bar so you end up hiking everything. You should take a look at Momentum, the park isn't quite as good but they usually have the biggest jump on Blackcomb glacier and have a private T-bar, which means no line-ups. You also get all your meals paid for unlike at COC. I went there in the summer so PM if you want anymore details on Momentum.

No way dude the airfare alone is $3000. The cheapest summer ski camp on snow is MHSSC. 2 weeks at MHSSC is cheaper than one week at Windells or COC. Sure you don't get to have top pros for you coaches but I would rather get to ski twice as much.

Honestly i say travel to the place that is closest to you... the prices are relatively the same, both have bad ass parks, and have a shit load of pros. But say i lived in CA which place would be more sensible for me to go to Windells or COC... Windells of corse because it would most likely cost less to travel there and it would take less time. but in the end its your choice and your money.

Windells has a private lift, so little to no lift lines their. One of the sickest skate and bmx parks I've ever seen, which is private too the camper as well and a positive vibe. If I where looking for a place to progress my skiing it would be Windells.

This.

Kayak.com

Check big airports in your area, and if you can get to Houston, you are moneyyyyy.

PM me for info, and we can get you in even cheaper (possibly free) if you bring a crew.

Hey Tommcd,

I'll leave the debate on which camp is better to everyone on here, it's totally us though, and just say we'd be stoked to have you come ski with us this summer.

We're dropping a new website in a couple, weeks, but the current site has all the basic camp info, and dates and prices for summer 2010. Let me know if you have any questions!

there is a lot of diffrent threads about summer camps, and lots of diffrent opnions, they should be super easy to find. i have been to both coc and windells and both were amazing, i had so much fun. the only reason i am going to windells again is because i basically live in whistler and they have a foam pit, everything else is equally great you will have an awesome time at either one

SASS is where I would go. I met one of their coaches in Beaver Creek, dude is so fun to ski with. And I'd much rather ride pow in the summer than park.
