Learn to Snowboard

Do you want to learn to snowboard but don't know how to go about it? Our "Learn to Snowboard" package could be what you're looking for.

We will organise everything for you. We take you to the hire shop to make sure you get the right equipment and then give you your lift passes and accompany you to your lesson on the first day. After that it's downhill all the way!!

There are areas set aside for your first stumbling attempts and then some long green and blue runs to build up your confidence.

Complete package includes Snowboard Hire, Tuition (6 x 3 hour lessons) and Lift pass.

Adults - 390 euros high season, 370 euros low season

Children under 15 - 330 euros all season.

What to Wear

If your not sure about clothing you can talk to us on the phone for advice but here is a list of essentials -

  • Ski gloves or mittens
  • Warm hat
  • Ski jacket or wind and waterproof jacket.
  • Ski pants or waterproof over trousers
  • Good quality sun glasses or goggles preferably UV Category 4.
  • High factor sun screen
  • Ski socks - non cotton and not too thick. "Tube" socks are a definite no no.

It's best to use the multi layered approach with a thermal under layer and a couple of fleece layers which can be stripped off if you get too warm.

Dry Slopes

Some people like to get a head start and have a few lessons on a dry slope at home. This can be a good idea but plastic slopes can be painful to fall on so try to get to a Snowdome with real snow if you can it's much more lifelike! and certainly more fun.

Private Lessons

If you are a group or just want to progress at your own pace you can hire a private instructor. You can pick and choose the number, time and duration of the lessons and ensure that you get the full attention of the teacher.
