Your crew skis for a living.
Train them like it.
Instructors teach 100-plus days a season. Patrollers pull sleds from the opening bell. Montis gives your departments an eight-week preseason strength block written for their actual job by a Doctor of Physical Therapy — run in your own morning meetings, with no apps or accounts required from your staff.
One department · one season · free pilot · roster in by Sept 1
The heaviest weeks of the season land
on the least prepared legs.
Every mountain knows the November pattern. Nobody has had a program for it that seasonal staff will actually do.
Returners who guided all summer next to first-years who drove in from a desk job. Same start date, same opening-week workload.
Setup, route work, sled drills, back-to-back lesson blocks on early-season snow. Legs that have not skied since April absorb the hardest stretch first.
Sore, worn-down staff in December means thin lesson schedules and short patrol benches during the exact weeks demand spikes. Durability work in September is cheaper than coverage gaps in December.
A preseason standard your department
can actually run.
Instructor Preseason and Patrol Preseason are eight-week strength builds authored for those workloads — lower-body strength and braking, trunk control, capacity for sled days and long teaching blocks. Race clubs get a dedicated team dryland block. Pick a start date; Montis generates the whole calendar.
Two 30-minute group sessions a week, run by whoever already runs your meetings — guided player, written movement cues, timers. Staff log completion and how it felt by scanning a code and tapping their name. No downloads, no accounts, no seat provisioning before day one.
Your crew works on snow six days a week — a static gym program double-loads them and dies by January. When the week runs heavy, Montis lightens what needs lightening and moves what needs moving, and every change comes with a plain-language reason. That honesty is why skeptical 25-year-olds keep doing it.
Your coach-of-record sees roster completion week by week — participation and sessions across the department. Individual logs stay with the athlete. There is nothing here your staff would resent, and nothing your privacy review will flag.
Not a gym app with a snowflake on it.
Instructor Preseason builds the legs and trunk for 100-plus teaching days; the in-season track maintains them around a full lesson schedule. A perk your hiring letters can name.
Patrol Preseason is built for the job's real demands — sled work, route days, heavy boots, long shifts. In-season maintenance keeps the base without adding to the load.
A team dryland block for alpine and freeride programs — coach runs the group session, athletes log by QR, and the club gets a preseason it can repeat every year.
Guides carry the group. Mountain-athlete builds with a full season's progression — strength, capacity, durability — adapted around days in the field.
Built in Bozeman by a DPT
who trains the people you employ.
Ten years of clinical practice. More than 150 ACL reconstructions guided back to sport. Professional skiers trained, ski-specific exercises co-built with the instructors who teach the sport. The programs your departments would run were written by someone who spends every winter working on patrollers and instructors — and every summer in these mountains.
Deterministic, not black-box: training decisions follow visible rules, and every change shows its reasoning. Your directors can read exactly why a session changed.
Staff coming back from ACL reconstruction? ACL Bridge is the clinician-led return-to-sport track — progression gated by measured limb symmetry. Separate product, same Bozeman clinic.
About ACL Bridge →One department. One season. Free.
We are running a small number of pilots this preseason, configured personally. Here is the whole deal:
One department — patrol or ski school, 15–50 staff. Roster in by September 1. One supervisor runs two 30-minute group sessions a week. An honest end-of-season debrief on how it went.
Eddie configures everything — the block, the calendar, the QR codes — and checks in monthly. Every participating staff member also gets a full individual Montis seat for the season. Cost to your mountain: nothing, season one.
If it works, we write it up together and talk about a per-seat season rate for a wider rollout. If it does not, you spent a few emails.
