First-timer tips

Gloves and goggles aren’t available for hire so bring your own. Sunglasses are fine in lieu of goggles if the weather is warm. Dress in layers and wear a long T-shirt to protect your arms. Long socks are essential for preventing boot rub. Allow time to collect your gear and get sorted before your lesson.

Bring a small water bottle that will fit in the pocket of your ski jacket.

If you’re not having fun, call it a day — there’s always tomorrow.
