Come train on the same hill that has produced the most successful ski racing family in US Skiing history!!
The Cochran Family took the ski racing world by storm in the 60’s and 70’s, with all four siblings on the US and Olympic Ski team. The next generation of Cochran’s (known as the “Cochran Cousins”) have continued the family tradition with 6 new members of our US Ski Team! … ……One of their secrets is running gates after gates after gates……we guarantee that one night of training at Cochran’s (if you are in good enough shape to handle it!!) will give you more training than you would receive in a week at most programs!
