What is the Arc'teryx Freeride Academy?
The Arc’teryx Freeride Academy is a premier freeride education event, where attendees have the opportunity to advance their technical skills by learning from world-class guides and professional athletes. Located in St. Anton am Arlberg, Austria — a leading freeride destination in the Alps rich terrain and a history of progressive freeriding. As well as on-mountain clinics, the Freeride Academy features a full program of free events, experiences, and spaces built to connect, inspire, and grow the freeride community.
Level Up Your Skills With Clinics
Our clinics take place in the world's best classroom: on the mountains where we all love to play. Led by world-class mountain guides and professional athletes, academy clinics are an opportunity to learn technical skills and put them into practice in the field.
We build our clinic lineup with an eye to help skiers and snowboarders of all abilities level up their skills. We offer expert-led clinics and workshops for all levels, from beginner to advanced, so there is something for everyone.
Gather & Connect In The Freeride Village
Share experiences and stories, meet your community, and add to your Freeride Academy experience in the heart of St. Anton at the Freeride Village. Here you'll find clinic registrations and workshops to join, test the latest gear for free from Arc'teryx Gear Library, learn about our circularity initiatives at the ReBIRD experience, and meet the pros at Athlete Meet & Greets. There will also be partner stands and demo gear, a lounge area with food and drink, as well as live music and DJs. The Freeride Village is free and open to everyone.
