We love to share our love of snowsports and offer the First Time Series in both skiing and snowboarding. Studies have found that when people take professional instruction for three days at the start (to get good strong basic skills) they are much more likely to enjoy the sport and stick with it. To reach as many first-timers as possible, we offer the First Time Series, which is ?buy-2-get-3? during our regular weeks, and even better, ?buy-1-get-3? during our value weeks! Packages are for lift and lesson, and if you need equipment, that can be included also.
