“I started skiing in my late 20’s and spent years trying to “figure it out” myself. When I finally took a lesson with Sam, we started again from first principles. He found a few drills that were perfect for me an I’m now skiing with a level of performance I didn’t think possible having started as an adult.”

“I’ve skied almost all of my life but have struggled with carving and getting a clean edge. Through targeted exercises and drills over a few weeks, Ryan's guidance helped me to feel balanced on a clean edge. Now I confidently carve on almost any groomed run.”

What professionals say

What other coaches say about SkiHQ.

Harry Laidlaw

World Cup Racer, Olympian

Melbourne/Innsbruck

"Over the past decade, I've known Sam as a friend, teammate, athlete and coach. I can confidently affirm that Sam's coaching is as impressive as his skiing. What sets Sam apart is his exceptional ability to distill high-performance ski technique into easily understandable concepts for his clients - a rare trait in former athletes.

Sam has helped skiers from across the spectrum - from intermediate weekend enthusiasts to World Cup competitors. For me, he stands as the most reliable and trusted voice in skiing outside of my immediate coaching team.

Furthermore, Ryan played a crucial role in my return to the World Cup starting gate after a severe hamstring injury pre-season. The support provided by the SkiHQ team were instrumental in my comeback. SkiHQ is an opportunity for regular skiers to receive World Cup level support.”

Tom Waddington

BASI Lvl 4 Trainer/Examiner 2x BASI Demo Team Member

Verbier

"When I first started coaching Ryan, it was unbelievable to hear that he had only skied 2 weeks prior to 2018. His current level of skiing is almost unheard of in such a short amount of time.

It was clear to me that Ryan was a fast learner,  with a deep understanding of the human body.  Ryan has improved rapidly as a coach, using his physio background to analyse his clients technique... He has a great ability to accelerate the learning curve of his clients using the same mental models he created fro his own improvement.


By 2022 he had completed his level 4, an outstanding achievement in such a short time. I would 100% recommend his coaching."

Matthew Smith

Head Trainer, Thredbo Ski school

Thredbo/Val d'isere

“Tim Robertson is Thredbo’s longest serving ski instructor (43 years). Tim was a member of the Australian INTERSKI team for 10 years.

He has contributed to the Australian teaching manual and has mentored many of the current wave of Australia’s world renowned instructors.

Recently Tim has received a life time recognition from the APSI for his contribution.
Having had the pleasure of closely witnessing Tim's contributions and passion for the sport, I can confidently affirm his remarkable skill set, dedication, and impact on both the Australian skiing scene and the international stage”
