snowboarding lessons...?

Question

i did them at xscape, the 1st and 2nd lessons, but that was nearly a year ago. should i redo them or just carry on from there?

also, how many lessons are there exactly to go through?

thanks =)

Answer 1

It depends how fast you progressed in your lessons. To use the main slope you need to be able to do your turns, both heel edge to toe edge and toe edge to heel edge and to be able to do them in a controlled manner. I would guess that as you have only had two lessons you wont have learned to turn yet and are doing falling leaf and stuff like that. If so just continue on from where you left off with the lessons, you should be able to pick it up again fairly quickly, Good Luck.

I really don't think you can say "You need THIS many lessons". It's all about your comfort level, your confidence, and your straight up abilities. How were things going at the end of your last lesson? Could you make edge transitions regularly? Have you unloaded a lift with only one foot in? There's a lot of questions you can ask yourself, but it really just comes down to you.

Maybe just start with a bunny slope pass for the first half of your first day, then move on from there. Good luck! It's always awesome to see people going back and pumped on learning the sport! Two seasons in a row, now you're hooked:-)

Answer 3

To get to recreational level ( this is when you can use the main slope without any supervision) you need to get onto level 4 but you can go upto level 6.Depends what you want really i`d say get to level 4 then spend abit of time to brush up on what you have learn`t and then maybe get a level 5 and 6 lesson.

Book your lessons up asap because its starting to get busy at the domes now.

good luck

Talk to the boarding school, but you will be surprised how much you remember once you strap a board on.
