Thanks to everyone for an amazing 2011 season at SGC.

This year we celebrated our 10th anniversary of Summer Gravity Camp with another awesome summer of riding in the world renowned Whistler Mountain Bike Park.

We brought in insane coaching by the likes of heavy hitters - Brandon Semenuk (Freeride Mountain Bike Would Tour Champ and Red Bull Joyride Champion), Cam McCaul (Crankworx Colorado Champion) Cam Zink (Freeride Mountain Bike World Tour runner up) and Stevie Smith World Cup DH Ripper. Check out the full line-up SGC Coaches here!

Add the introduction of the Acrobag the world's safest and largest action sports inflatable utility, the level of progression was impressive for all abilities.

2011 went down as one of the best yet this was just a taste of how SGC continues to progress and redefine itself as THE premiere freeride MTB camp.

REGISTRATION is now open for the 2012 summer and if you book before January 9th, you're eligible to receive 2011 pricing. The first camp starts on July 1, 2012 so register early to lock in the best price and reserve your spot in the week you want. "Like" SGC on Facebook and stay up to date with pictures and videos of what our riders/coaches get up to in the off-season.

Check out the new film from the Coastal Crew, FROM THE INSIDE OUT, and the much anticipated Anthill Films, STRENGTH IN NUMBERS releasing spring 2012. The roster for each film is stacked with SGC coaches and cinematographers.

Thank you to all our campers for coming back year after year. Because of you we have one of the highest return rates in the industry. It is easy to see why, when you are getting coached by the biggest names in the sport, filmed by real action-sport filmmakers and photographers and hitting facilities like the the Whistler Mountain Bike Park, Acrobag, pump track, mulch pit and Air Dome. As well, our camp partners are committed to supplying our campers with amazing gear year after year. No other camp can offer you all these things under one name. Thanks for coming back and we will continue to give you the best experience on a bike out there.

Sincerely,

Andrew Shandro

If this email isn't displaying properly, please read it online.

Wow, what a winter we have been having in Whistler, BC!

With over 3 metres of snow still at the top of A-Line in the Whistler Mountain Bike Park, it�s hard to believe that we�ll be riding in less than 2 months!

Despite all the snow we have been hard at work to confirm our 10th (and best) Summer Gravity Camps season. Here�s what�s new for the 2011 camps:

Coaches

We recently confirmed Kokanee Crankworx, Red Bull Rampage and FMBA Champion Cameron Zink as a coach. In addition, based on his unbelievable season last summer, we�ve also got Tyler McCaul confirmed as well � giving us a McCaul double-threat! And of course the same great roster of returning coaches will be on deck for 2011.

Prizing

After 10 years of running these camps we know how stoked our campers get for the unbelievable camp prizing and swag! This summer is shaping up to have the best loot ever with GoPro and Leatt just coming on board and so much more from our awesome returning sponsors.

Dates & Availability

The 2011 dates have been announced and we�re offering 3 youth camps and 2 adult camps with a small break in between to fit Kokanee Crankworx in. Camps are filling up fast and online registration is available now. All returning campers will get a custom SGC Dakine pack.

In other news come check us out with our partners: PinkBike.com, GoPro, Trek and the Whistler Mountain Bike Park in the PinkBike tent at Sea Otter on Saturday, April 16 from 1-3 for an awesome BBQ and enter to win a Trek Session frame with Fox RC4 shock! Oh yeah, our coaches will be on site for autographs as well!

Enjoy the rest of your winter and we hope to see you at Summer Gravity Camps this summer! In the meantime, here�s a quick little nugget from our friends at VitalMTB � an interview with me, Cam McCaul and Brandon Semenuk. Enjoy!
