The mountains give us a lot — powder days, perspective-shifting views, and a canvas to express ourselves. At Nonstop, we believe in giving back to the places that make it all possible. That’s why our courses aren’t just about making you a stronger skier or snowboarder — they help you connect deeper with the mountains, with the people you meet, and with the wild spaces that shape us.
For every rider who joins us, 1% of your course fee goes directly to environmental non-profits through our 1% for the Planet commitment. So every turn, every run, every new skill — you’re part of something bigger.
Progression With Impact
You’ll ski powder, charge steeps, and hone new skills — all while knowing you’re supporting certified grassroots environmental causes. Whether you’re here for a 1-week camp or an 11-week instructor course, your trip leaves more than just fresh tracks.
Small percentage. Big impact.
Drop straight into the good stuff — powder, progression, and the kind of coaching that changes how you ride. For riders of all levels, our all-mountain, backcountry, and technical camps are designed to help you level up. Based in handpicked locations with huge scope for progression and adventure, you’ll get world-class coaching and share the ride with like-minded people.
Go pro with instructor or patrol training. From Canada’s deep powder to the towering peaks of Europe, our instructor courses are the ultimate way to spend a winter. With durations from 3 weeks to a full season — and built around respected qualification systems — they’re perfect for launching a snow career, supercharging your technique, or turning your gap year into a mega adventure.

Explore WildsightWe know that travel and snowsports leave an environmental footprint — and we’re not here to sugarcoat that. But we believe in doing what we can, where we can.
With every rider who joins us, we’re supporting a movement. By giving back through 1% for the Planet, we’re supporting the people and projects doing real, lasting work. It’s a small step, but it’s one we’re committed to — and proud to share with every Nonstop rider.
