Castle Mountain Freestyle Club

Castle Mountain Freestyle

This on-hill ski club is the club for kids who love to ski & want to improve.  Our club promotes a safe, positive and fun environment for skill development and it encourages young athletes to go as far as they want both in the sport and in life.

Castle Mtn Freestyle (formerly Wild West Freestyle) offers the best club venue for a mountain freestyle club in Alberta.  We have both a designated air and mogul site that's closed to the general public. These venues provide us with an excellent training site for our kids so they can safely progress their jumps and skiing style.
