I'm a 16 year old girl snowboarder and I really want to go to one of these summer camps but can't decide which one is best. I'm leaning towards COC right now but can I get some feedback on all the camps? Thanks!

Hi
Thanks for checking out all the different camps. With COC you get more time on snow in a park that is three times the size of Windell's or HCSC's. The extra space means we have more features for every ability for you to progress on. The progression you get in a week just from the quality and sizeof the park and it's features is pretty crazy. Add in awesome coaches and you'll be blowing yourself away every day.  COC is on snow longer than hood camps as well. You get on the lift at 7:30 and are usually snowboarding by 8:30 or so and then we ride till 3. At hood you are usually on snow by 9:30 - 10. They finish at 2. Over the course of a week it's like getting an extra day of riding.
Best of all being in Whistler is so fun that the time after riding is as fun as the time spent riding.
If you have any questions feel free to hit me back.

CoC cause whistler looks awesome and it seems that you get alot more freedom at CoC instead of being treated like a little kid at windells but I wouldnt know anything my family dont got the money for that shiet

CoC does seem pretty sweet. What are the good camps for people over 18 though? I'm 22

If I had the money to go to windells or champions I would rather spend 2 weeks at mt hood summer ski camp than 1 at those other places.

Could just be the "expert" part of the park. If it's as big as claimed to be, I'm sure there are sections for every skill level.

Look at Mt. Hood Summer Ski Camp, not at many people, cheaper, but still has a sick park with coaches that know what they are talking about!

they do, but i'm pretty sure its way more expensive.

i have a friend that went to windell's, he had a ton of fun, but he really didn't progress that much. don't know if that's just him or if its the coaches though
