Sure, it’s fun to ride with the boys, but Windells understands that escaping the guys and hanging out with other girls can be even more fun! With this in mind, Windells offers a myriad of female-specific options and activities, to maximize fun, progression, and enjoyment at the “funnest” place on Earth!
Many of today’s top female snowboarders have spent time at Windells as both campers and coaches. As campers, they benefited from unique opportunities to learn and grow in a comfortable environment. As coaches, they’re able to encourage campers to achieve their goals through positivity and professional instruction.
On Hill
Request a female coach, request an all-girls group, or ride with a good mix of male and female snowboard campers of similar ability level. Windells is happy to accommodate the needs and preferences of our female campers. Learning is individual and Windells strives to make sure female campers of all ages are comfortable in their coaching groups. This way, campers are able to build confidence, try new things, and walk away with new tricks, better board control, and motivation to continue their progress post-camp. Girls-only clinics with guest pros provide an extra-special learning environment, where campers can get tips from the best female snowboarders in the world.
On Campus
Bring home some cool prizes and hang out away from the boys for a little while! Every day is packed with fun activities and contests. Female campers can participate in any of the all-camper games, but each session, count on Windells Camp sponsors to host fun girls-only activities and clinics for both adult and youth campers.
