Finally we get to experienced snow even if it's almost off the season. Equipment rental is a must so you can experience everything in the Ski resort. Jacket, suit, boots, sled, snow board, etc must be availed for a hassle free experience.

Ben is an absolutely fantastic snowboarding instructor! He was incredibly patient and encouraging, and his clear instructions made learning feel so much easier. We went from barely being able to stand to actually making some turns by the end of the lesson. We really appreciate his positive attitude and helpful tips. I'd highly recommend him to anyone looking to learn or improve their snowboarding skills!"
