You should try to not have an Offseason. Ski more, less of everything else.

cliff jump, longboard, occasional tramp. i dont necessarily "train" specifically for skiing in the summer, but I do try to stay active. i try to focus on relaxing and generally having a fucking blast during the summer.

If you live out west, go and earn some turns if you're properly equipped.

Get a job so money isn't an issue when time for new gear/lift tickets rolls around. I'm working like 40 hours a week for most of the summer then I won't need to think twice about dropping however much for a season pass.

i go to the gym mostly to do leg workouts and torso, gotta do those leg presses and squats... also go running to boost up that cardio... then again i do that during the season too, so i don't really know if it's a "offseason" training.

I plan on starting to do skate edits of my friends, so i might learn to do some shit on skate too, who knows...

mountain biking keeps you physically and mentally fresh for ski season.  And it's incredibly fun.

Tough sport to get into because of the initial cost (the bike), but it's worth it.
