MON: We introduce you to the equipment and how it works. Following this you’ll learn how to stand on your board and balance while it’s in motion. On the beginner’s slope you’ll learn how to control speed and start to steer your board. Towards the end of the session you’ll put everything together to link your first turns.
TUES: We continue on the beginner’s slope improving the flow of your turns and learning how to tighten them. With considerable individual feedback and plenty of practice, each rider should feel things really coming together. If things are going well you’ll even get to learn your first easy freestyle trick!
WEDS: Under the watchful eye of your instructor, we leave the beginner’s slope to make a trip around the mountain. On a carefully selected route, you’ll get to put everything you’ve learnt so far into practice on the open slopes. Today is about gaining mileage, understanding different types of snow and terrain and boosting your confidence.
THUR: Today’s the day to push the limits! Depending on conditions we may tackle some steeper runs, try some easy off-piste or even learn how to jump. But no matter what, you’ll leave the slopes feeling like you’ve achieved something special!
FRI: The last day of the course is fun and relaxed. Your instructor will give you individual feedback on your progress so far and you’ll get the opportunity as a group to choose what you want to do and where you want to go: get back in the powder snow, bust a few more airs for the camera, or have a sociable drink on the slopes. |
