With the help of internationally recognised instructors and ski guides, Falls Creek offers a top-notch program for individuals with disabilities. Participants will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the magic of skiing in the snowy mountains of Falls Creek. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced skier, there's something for everyone.
The programs at Falls Creek cater to a range of adaptive skiing and snowboarding disciplines. Two track skiing allows participants to ski in a standing position using regular ski boots and two downhill skis. Additional equipment, such as ski-bra's and tethers, can be utilised for stability and steering. For those looking for a more challenging experience, three-track and four-track skiing require the use of outriggers for balance and steering.
Sit skiing, on the other hand, offers the opportunity to ski in a seated position within a modified, padded seat. Straps securely hold the skier into the seat, and outriggers are used for balance and turning. Sit skiing is further divided into bi skiing and mono skiing, providing options for individuals with different needs and preferences.
If snowboarding is more your style, Falls Creek's adaptive snowboarding programs are sure to impress. Participants can snowboard in a standing position using regular snowboarding boots and a regular snowboard. Additional equipment, such as the snow wing and the snow slider, can be utilised for stability and steering. The snow wing, a rubber frame that guides hold onto, offers steering and support, while the snow slider assists with maneuvering. Rest assured that all equipment used in the programs is designed to be easily loaded onto chairlifts, Poma or T-bar tows.
