The slope service and Ski Anim'Alp operate everything to insure the opening of the  snowpark during the whole winter season. 
During the winter season 2006/07, the snowparks for advanced and beginners have been set up in January because of a lack of snow : However, to satisfy freestylers at the very beginning of the season, a snowpark at an altitude of 3300 m on the glacier was set up on the 1st December 2006 : this experience will be renewed in December 2007, depending on the snow conditions.

This winter season 2007/08
From one snowpark to another, come to benefit from a wide choice of workshops: boarder cross,  half pipe, big air, hips, tables, quatters, slydes and whoops...

Come to confront in the playground of the skicross World Champion, Ophélie DAVID, a boarder cross expert, reserved for the experienced users. Skicross is inspired by motor bike cross-country races: simultaneous start with 4 or 6 skiers, modules (banked jumps, corners, woops, big air, etc...). Skiers, be careful and try to arrive 1st at the bottom !
