Hill Space fees
Gate training
As an independent race team we have to pay the mountain operators a hill space training fee every time we want to train gates. We are basically reserving a private section of slope for our team and I believe it to be correct for the mountain operators to charge an additional fee for this service, the area required for race training often involves additional grooming, out of hours lift operations, fencing and water injection.
The fees vary but are between $30-$60 per day depending on the time and length of time training takes place. These fees are payable directly to the mountain and are paid weekly once we produce the finalized spreadsheet and email it out to all athletes involved.
Minimum numbers of athletes apply
Free ski / Skills training
Some mountains charge a team coaching fee for allowing a team to train free ski on their mountain, again these costs vary and the exact amounts will be confirmed to parents before any training takes place Currently there are no free ski training fees for our team at Rainbow.
However there are charges at NZski mountains of approx. $35 per athlete per day and an early morning and free ski charge at Porters of $50 -200 per season
