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. |
