Ticket to Ride has teamed up with ski season specialists natives.co.uk to bring a cutting edge combination of surfing and skiing, offering back to back seasons and providing the Ultimate Gap Year.

It is simply the perfect combination of surfing and skiing/snowboarding. Riders take a 1 week cooking course with Natives.co.uk (which guarantees a job in an Alps ski resort) and then head to South Africa to complete the TTRide South Africa surfing course. It's then off to the Alps from November - April, before returning home with the hope of working as a surf coach using Ticket to Ride's recruitment service (option 1 only.)

There are 2 options available:

TTRide South Africa + Winter Ski/Snowboard Season
After your cooking course take part in TTRide South Africa, with our signature 10 week instructor course from September to November before heading to the Alps to take up your position in one of Europe's top ski resorts.

Winter Ski/Snowboard Season + TTRide African Road Trip
Take TTRide's African Road Trip Surf Course after your ski season, for 6 weeks of adventure heading to TTRide’s favourite 5 South African locations.
