Women-only ski and snowboard freestyle camps, the Burton Snowbroads, will be held at The Remarkables at the end of the month.

Starting tomorrow and running until September 8, the annual camp will get under way for its fourth year.

Co-ordinator Mo Rush said the camps had gone from strength to strength in this time and there would be limited space for the $120 registrations.

The camps were designed for intermediate and above boarders and skiers, though no previous freestyle experience was required.

"They started out as a way to get the girls on the mountain into the park"

"We have great coaches from the Snowsports School at both Coronet Peak and The Remarkables ... It's not hardcore but it's a great way for the women to try new things in a safe and fun environment."

"Some of them have never been in the park before and others want to perfect their technique. So we split them into groups to match their goals and ability. It's great to see them amping each other up, and taking control of the park."
