DemoTeams Moritz Ski School

Both Demo-Teams, the women's „Las Mattas" and the men's „Red Devils", of the St. Moritz ski school, train weekly for competitions from December to April, like the „Bündner Championship“ and the „Swiss Snow Happening“.

In formation skiing, there is a team of eight members, who ski in synchro, with a lot of speed and dynamic technique and who move and form different figures on a slope of from 250 to 400 meters.

The personal skiing technique of the individual riders must be coordinated in each momentum with that of the other team members. The goal of the elite competitions held in March and April is perfect dynamics, highest precision, correct technique and meticulous synchrony.

You can marvel at the performance of our Demo Teams at several events this winter.
