Terrain Based Learning™
We've partnered with SNOW Operating to make your first day of sliding easier and even more fun. By using specifically shaped snow features to naturally control your speed and body position, Terrain Based Learning™ removes the traditional fears and anxieties associated with your first time sliding on snow, allowing you to focus purely on the fun! Using Terrain Based Learning™, we've simplified the process of learning to ski or snowboard down to four simple steps:
-
Step One
The Flats
In the Flats, you’ll meet your instructor and fellow lesson participants. This is where you’ll get familiar with your equipment and the basic ranges of motion needed for your time on snow.
-
Step Two
Mini-Pipe
In the Mini-Pipe, you’ll get your first experience with sliding on snow. This is where you’ll learn to pump the terrain, and steer and slide forward and backwards.
-
Step Three
The Rollers
The Rollers are where you’ll get your first taste of what it’s like to experience the thrills of gravity. This is where you will gain confidence in sliding downhill while the gently rolling terrain helps to naturally control your speed.
-
Step Four
Banked Turns
Now you’re ready for your first turns. The subtle banking of these turns will gently help to redirect your skis or board through your first series of turns.
