Commitment/Values
For ski racers to achieve long-term success and enjoyment, they must develop into great skiers first, and only then can they become great ski racers. Through the USSA program of SkillsQuest – we are committed to age appropriate progression starting with fundamental skiing skills, then developing advanced skills required to race. By skiing with the China Peak Race Team, athletes can look forward to being rewarded for working on those things that will bring out their full potential in the long run. Coaches track their progress so parents can see how their children are growing in all aspects of the sport.
