Loon Freestyle is fortunate to have a highly competent and motivated
staff, with a diverse coaching experience. Andy Horvitz is the Program Director for 2009-10. Andy will guide the program as
we continue to be a leader in Eastern Freestyle. He will be joined by a
team of experienced coaches who have a wealth of competition
experience.
In addition, each year we welcome guest coaches, often current and
former NorAM, World Cup, and Olympic competitors. These guest
coaches augment our coaching staff and offer our team members a
perspective from athletes at the pinnacle of freestyle skiing.
Are you a great mogul skier or
freerider? Do you have what it takes to lead and
inspire competitive athletes?
