WFF Full Time Mogul Program

The WFF Full Time Mogul Program is built for skiers who want to take their mogul skiing to the highest level.
Led by Olympian Emerson Smith and U.S. Ski Team alumni Hunter Bailey, this full-time program gives serious athletes the coaching, training, and mindset needed to reach their potential in FIS and World Cup competition.


Train Where the Best Train

Our team trains full-time at Snowbird and Deer Valley® — two of the best resorts in the world.
Athletes get passes to both mountains, giving them access to world-class courses and terrain.


The Program

The WFF Full Time Mogul Program is built around three key parts:

  • Mogul & Jump Skills Training
  • Mental Conditioning
  • Physical Conditioning

    Mogul & Jump Skills Training

    Training covers every phase of mogul development:

    • Trampoline: Learn body control, balance, and air awareness in a safe environment.

    • Water Ramping: Practice tricks and air form with real-time feedback before taking them to snow.

    • On-Snow Camps: High-volume training blocks at Snowbird and Deer Valley® with a focus on turns, jumps, and flow.

    • Competition Readiness: Training that builds confidence and consistency under pressure.


    Mental Conditioning

    Working with Dr. Dan Freigang, a leader in sports psychology, athletes learn to focus, stay calm under pressure, and build mental toughness.
    This training helps skiers handle competition stress, recover from setbacks, and perform with confidence when it counts.


    Physical Conditioning

    Our off-snow training builds the strength and endurance needed to handle the demands of mogul skiing.
    Emerson and Hunter design every workout using proven methods focused on power, agility, balance, and recovery.

    Athletes also get guidance on nutrition, learning how to fuel for training, recovery, and peak performance.


    Proven Results

    Athletes from this program have gone on to win national titles, stand on FIS and NorAm podiums, and earn spots on the U.S. Ski Team.
    Our athletes have represented Team USA at the Winter Olympics, World Championships, and World Cup events.
