SDTS Intro

Ready to live on the edge?

If you have a desire to combine both your love for God and your passion for adrenaline-pumping extreme sports, this is the DTS for you!

With the Ski + Snowboard DTS, we are passionate about discovering the radical nature of our Creator and bringing this message to the slopes.

For the first three months in New Zealand, we have cutting edge speakers share relevant and life-changing teaching, giving us tools to apply them into the snowboarding culture and the world around us. We mix up the schedule with a variety of activities to challenge and strengthen our relationship with God and with others, such as weekly small group interaction, classroom teaching, worship and intercession times, study time, community and base work duties, missions and outreach activities, as well as interaction with the local church and community.

We hit the slopes a couple times each week; on Wednesdays, we ride at Porters, and on Saturdays we head up to Mt Hutt! There are also various opportunities to explore this beautiful country during our free time.

Take the leap and join us for this exciting season on the mountains!

SDTS Outreach

Following our time in Zealand, teams head out for up to 10 weeks to countries such as China, India, Jordan, Israel, Chile, Argentina, Indoneisa and the Pacific Islands. Teams reunite in New Zealand for a debriefing time and graduation.

Outreach is a time of tremendous evangelism where we can put into practice what we’ve learned in the lecture phase. Dramas, skits, music, sports and discussion will be used on the streets, in schools and churches to proclaim the name of God and to tell people this much needed truth.
