  #1  Animal board camps  Posted 01/02/2010 @ 22:52
Hi,

Im thinking on going on one of the animal camps to Austria this year and was wandering if anyone has had any experience of them. I will probably be going myself as friends are all either uninterested or skint so would this camp be suitable for a billy no mates?

I started the above thread a while ago. Still haven't found any decent reviews or anything on it yet. I haven't booked anything and to be honest, I doubt I will. £720 can pretty much pay for 2 late season trips which sounds more appealing.

Hey there!

Ive went on thje animal camp last year in France and am going on two this season, Japan and Austria.
They are very good, probably more chilled than other camps, (no pressure to nail tricks), they are a little more expensive than regular packages but you do stay in nice accomadation and get fed great food.
I go on my own but the Animal camps always have repeat bookings and most of the people I met were all on their own anyway, its a good vibe and everyone hangs out etc.

give me a shout if you have any more questions!

Cheers mate, i'm hopefully goin to make a decision this week on it. Some mates are now looking to put together a long weekend so I might go for that option instead. It was the idea of week long coaching that appealed to me and when you look at the price of going to a snowboard school all week if I went somewhere else I dont think the price is that bad.

might get in touch with you if I have some questions

Hi,
I've been waiting for one of my mates to get back and tell me what it was like. Well... He reckon'd it was "better than Canada" (he went to Whistler). He's already looking to book for next year.

Well i'm gonna do beginner ramp night again now, can't have him showing me up!

Anyone else been?
