Skiing is often easier to pick up than snowboarding since you start upright and use poles for balance. Most people can link basic turns by the end of their first lesson. The real magic happens when you graduate from bunny hills to gliding down tree-lined runs with mountain views stretching for miles.

People who tried this

โ€œI was so, so nervous the whole time but Iโ€™m so glad that I pushed myself to go, and also to get up and try again every single time i fell, which was a lot of times!! It took me almost 1.5 hours to complete my first trail, and I likely fell 20+ times, but it was incredibly enjoyable the whole time! I was laughing every time I fell and I really pushed myself mentally and physically to somewhat overcome my fear of falling. I watched so many adults and little toddlers skiing flawlessly on the same trail and told myself that I could do it too. As I tried harder and practiced more I got a lot better. I learned to properly balance my weight and control my speed which was incredible; I never learned to ride a bike because of aforementioned fear of falling, so watching me being able to balance myself on a moving object made me so, so happy.โ€
