Dave Brown, DB has been coaching and riding hard in Verbier for the last 8 winters and holds the highest Swiss licence as well as his BASI ISIA and ISTD. DB spends his winters coaching for es-ride and is forever growing his bag of tricks on both kickers and boxes/rails in the Snowparks throughout the four valleys. DB also has a huge passion for backcountry snowboarding and when conditions allow can be found to be putting first tracks down some of the more technical lines around Verbier. Insider knowledge on were the best powder is,  allows DB to keep finding good snow well after a  dump. DB is the  ideal guide or coach to show you some of the hidden gems the Four Valleys has to offer.

            Matt Spragg, Matty has now logged four seasons under his belt and has  completed his BASI snowboard technical and teach level 3 exam. Matty comes from a Mountain Bike background which he raced at a national level. One of the most naturally gifted teachers out there , Matty is great with any level of rider from day one beginner to the more advanced rail wizard. When not instructing/coaching for es-ride Matty can be found in the snowpark  hitting kickers or slicing and dicing some of the endless backcountry around Verbier. Matty’s favourite spot to Freeride is  in Bruson which is a great secret spot!!
