“Optimal training for ski racing is all about consistency of fundamental physiological and technical principles, with some tweaking to your personal attributes.
America's greatest contribution to international ski racing is the team. Most nations have at least tried to learn from and borrow the U.S. Ski Team approach to the Team Birkie exists because of this important trend.
Even within a great team, small individual tweaks based on solid evidence about you, can go a long way in making you better. That's how we approach it at Team Birkie.
Our programs are designed to deliver what YOU need. We have a program that will help you be part of our team!” - Chad Salmela, Team Birkie High Performance Director
