The very last ROXY All Star Snow Camp of the season is coming up in Whistler April 9-10, hosting beginner to expert riders. Snowboarders and skiers over the age of 19 are welcome to attend the “Ladies Only” camp to get coaching from top-level female skiers and riders for two full days at Whistler Blackcomb.

While there, ROXY All Star Snow Camp participants can also enjoy shopping perks at the Quiksilver Store in Whistler Village, daily refreshments (coffee, muffins), contest prize opportunities, and an après reception at Merlin’s Bar. The camp, including lessons and lift pass, is $265 and they have offered this opportunity to one lucky Miss604.com reader.

      Would love to learn from the best, improve my skiing in one of the most spectacular locations and of course relax at the Fairmont!

    65. Danni K.Wednesday, March 30th, 2011 — 10:57am PDT

      I am a boarder! Have had a few lessons but everyone seems to have their own idea on how to do things. So everytime I would get things going and feel confident, I would go to another lesson with a different coach and take 5 steps back. Having the same coach that understands your style and thought process would be such an opportunity for me to excel!! I am very visual and being goofy footed has been a bit of a downfall for me bc I haven’t been able to actually see what I am doing wrong/right. Maybe this camp can help! Thanks for the opportunity!! 🙂

    66. KarenWednesday, March 30th, 2011 — 11:06am PDT

      Snowboarder…and I’d be stoked to win!

      I snowboard. I live for it. I fell in love with it 13 years ago, and finally got the guts to move to Van to be closer to my favorite mountains. Now I just need to get the guts to hit the big kickers in the park! I would love to do the Roxy All Star Snow Camp to help me achieve that goal and push my riding closer to the level it should be.
