    High water expected for 2nd Annual High Performance Whitewater Camps

The Northern Colorado snowpack is as good as it has been in many years. With several meters of snow packed into our 14,000 ft peaks, our spring and early summer whitewater will be worth writing about after your visit. Whether you visit from Japan, Korea, Germany or Italy... you will feel as if you are at home within our community.

We train hard, but play harder.

Please come and join us during our High Performance Camp, which focuses on whitewater slalom and wildwater development for 18 and under. Three training sessions daily with Olympic Alumni and current US team members. Sessions will include technical dry-land, whitewater and flatwater technique, running, plyo-metrics and video analysis of sessions. Each member receives a full sports technical manual which includes sports psychology and biomechanics info for daily classroom sessions. Each day will be themed on the Olympic Ideals and after Citius, Altius, Fortius.
