Snowboard beginners and Level 1

Where there is demand the snowboarding groups are run in the afternoons as the snow is softer therefore easier on those inevitable tumbles making it safer!

MINI GROUPS: These groups require a minimum of 3 people to run and are based on a maximum of 5 per group!

We always recommend wearing helmets and body armour for boarding, particularly for beginners.

Children’s groups run only during school holidays unless there is enough demand to open a group.
