What women actually learn at a freeride camp 👇

It’s not about skiing perfectly.
It’s about learning how to read terrain, understand risk, make a plan, and commit — even when it feels uncomfortable.
Because that’s where progression happens.
Not in perfect conditions, but in real ones.
Together.

This is what WPD is about 🤍

I couldn’t be more excited to present to you my new video series ‘Lorraine’s Master Skills’! 👉 Link in bio!

Dive into 6 juicy episodes where I reveal the key mindset lessons and mental strength techniques I used on the @freerideworldtour to build my confidence, deal with anxiety, competition pressure and fear of failure, ski aggressive lines I had never before set foot on, be laser-focused on the present moment, perform at my best and have a great time doing it! Oh and as a side effect, I became world champion 🏆

This series comes with 6 mental strength action cards I created to help you put the strategies into action. So make sure you download those! ⚡️⚡️⚡️

Did I mention this is all 100% free?

Sharing this knowledge is my way of giving back to a sport – and life – I love so much and have greatly benefited from. It’s my contribution to all you young up and coming freeriders out there, because I know how it feels like to be lacking coaching and guidance from someone who’s just some steps ahead of you. Be my guest!

But it’s also knowledge I’m excited to be sharing with anyone who wants to level up their mental game, pursue excellence in life, and who wants to get the best out of themselves. The principles I teach in these videos can be applied successfully to any high-pressure, highly volatile environment in which results matter – whether it's in skiing, sports, sales, leadership, or finance. Enjoy!

And if you know someone who might benefit from these videos, please feel free to share the love! 🌈

Thanks to my sponsors @lechzuers and @factionskis who helped me made this series a reality ❤️🙏

Longtime Samsara Athlete @lorrainehuber reflects on her journey into motherhood, while holding fast to her goals as an athlete.⁠
⁠
The concept of 'making training a habit' means that training respects the boundaries of your life. As a parent you are more than an athlete, you have a higher purpose, and if your training doesn't respect that, it becomes unsustainable.⁠
⁠
When you make training a habit you build it into everyday. The consistency doesn't waver, but the intensity and the volume can.⁠
⁠
If you want to learn the system that has helped Lori train as a mom and an athlete join us tonight at 630MDT for our Lifelong Athlete Workshop, where we break down how we implement our training system into the lives our athletes. You will receive also a complete Workbook so that you leave with an individualized plan. Comment WORKSHOP and I will send you the invite⁠
⁠
ps This is the final call as the workshop kicks off in a few hours, check your email for all the materials before the workshop begins. by @lorrainehuber

When I first stood in a @freerideworldtour start gate, competing at the Olympic Games wasn’t even something we could dream about.

Back then, the Tour was the dream.

The FWT gave me a life I never could have imagined: goals to chase, a platform, the chance to travel the world and turn my passion into a career. I built a decade around competing on the Tour.

But looking back, it isn’t the results that stand out most. It’s the people.

Countless winters and seasons spent travelling together. And the outrageous parties—those who were there know. 😄

I especially remember our “rat pack” sessions: no bibs, no judges, just chasing snow, learning from one another and pushing each other.

The FWT didn’t just give us a competitive circuit—it gave us a community. As one of relatively few women in the sport, it was especially meaningful to connect and ski with female freeriders from around the world. Some of my closest friendships simply wouldn’t have existed otherwise.

I’ve never believed competition makes freeride less “real.” My concern is what happens when decisions move away from athletes and into the hands of governing bodies, commercial interests and politics. The athletes are the ones taking the risks on the mountain. They should have a meaningful voice in shaping the sport.

What I loved about the Tour was that, once you dropped in, it didn’t matter who your sponsors were. It was a level playing field, and the spotlight went to the best athletes—not the best connected. I hope Olympic freeride preserves that.

What excites me most is what this means for the next generation. Young freeriders can now dream not only of reaching the World Tour, but of representing their country at the Olympic Games.

For women, this feels especially significant. Our field was small, and we often had to fight simply to be seen. Equal Olympic quotas show how far we’ve come.

I’m proud to have helped shape freeride into the sport it is today.

Congratulations to @nicolashalewoods, the FWT team and everyone who helped bring freeride to this moment.

Our generation helped build the foundation. Now the next generation gets to take freeride further than we ever could have imagined. ❤️🏔️ by @lorrainehuber

California dreamin 🫠

How lucky am I, as a mountain girl (from Austria), to have friends with whom I can experience the beauty, secrets, and wonders of the ocean 💙🐳🫶🏻

Current favourite place: California ☀️

We celebrate each other’s baby steps as loudly as winning medals. Like getting comfortable with the uncomfortable (hello, ocean 🌊), trying new things, and catching (first) waves while keeping those knees strong (Eva’s rehab journey continues 🪽).

Beach days, running club, sunsets, wildlife safaris, Dinos Alive (with AI 🤿), an ice cream a day, endless playtime… and a whole lot of cuddles. 🫶🏻

This is what progression actually looks like.

Women’s Progression Days – Freeride Camp ✨

Four days of skiing, learning, and stepping into new terrain — together.

What makes WPD special isn’t just the skiing.
It’s how quickly a group of women becomes a team — supporting each other, pushing boundaries, and growing in confidence with every run.

From line choice and technique to risk management and avalanche rescue — this is about building real understanding in the mountains.
Not just skiing more lines, but learning how to choose and ski them.

That’s what WPD is about.

A big thank you to everyone who made this week what it was 🤍

And to the incredible team of guides — I couldn’t do this without you. Thank you for your energy, your professionalism, and the way you show up for every single participant.

A special thank you to the Lechmuseum for welcoming us at the Huber Hus - such a special place to come together.

Thank you to the partners who supported the camp:

@strolz.lech – our WPD home base in Lech @lechzuers – support with communication, content & lift access @lech_bergbahnen – for backing the project and making it possible to move through this terrain @pieps_technology – avalanche rescue equipment & support @roecklsports – gloves & ongoing support @scottsports – for the WPD goody bags

And of course 📸 @susanne.einzenberger for capturing it all.
