Podium is the most successful British training body for the Eurotest with over 100+ passes to date and 7 test technique passes in 3 years. Coaching is taken only by coaches with extensive experience of racing as well as BASI. It is important that this is the case so that the coach can ‘put themselves’ in the shoes of a ski instructor having to step into the racing arena for the first time.
