Check out this video of our dryland training at Alpine Meadows. For those of you who have never heard of "dryland training", it is defined as all "off snow training".

"Alpine Meadows joined forces with the Jamaica ski team with an unprecedented partnership inspired by the new skier cross phenom, Errol Kerr." The scenic mountain of Alpine Meadows with views of the beautiful Lake Tahoe will be the training mountain for the Jamaica Ski Team.
