Fee: £12 per 2 hour session. Use of Club Equipment is included (subject to availability)
No idea how to start.....
If that's you, then a one hour Snowboarding Taster session can be run as part of a Friday evening session. The Snowboarding Taster must be pre-booked and paid with the Bookings Secretary - who will be able to confirm Taster dates . A Car-Pass will be sent to you.

Liked the Taster, what next?

Most beginners on the snow spend the first few days learning to stand up and keeping their balance. It's much better to learn this part on the Dry Slope and so when you get onto the snow, you have the confidence and ability to explore more of the ski area.
Make the most out of your holiday, don't spend a week falling down, spend your week going down the hills with the wind in your hair, carving great turns into the piste......
Be in control of the board, not frightened by it
