Adaptive Snowsports Canterbury

Adaptive Snowsports Canterbury is a registered Incorporated Society with a proven track record of providing practical support to skiers and snowboarders with disabilities. They have been in operation for nearly 50 years and have provided thousands of ski days for people with a wide range of disabilities.

Every week they pick up members in Christchurch and take them to ski areas in our specially equipped vans, offer help with organising ski passes and rental equipment, then ski and snowboard together in a safe and fun environment with our qualified Instructors and trained helpers. Adaptive Snowsports also run annual ski and snowboard camps, end-of-year celebrations and more. Find out more about what they do each winter on their activities page.

They are are an inclusive organization and welcome members of any age, gender, sexual orientation, religion or ethnicity.

ASC is a not for profit organisation run by volunteers. They rely heavily on fundraising from trusts, from selling Bargain Books that contain ski pass discounts, and the assistance of Mt Hutt staff to make skiing and snowboarding affordable to their members.

We have fully qualified instructors and volunteer helpers.
