Skiing Ability Level

This is my first time.

I have never skied before or not yet able to do a snowplough on a gentle slope.

I have tried it once or twice before.

I can do snowplough turns in control on gentle slopes. May have used a ski tow.

I can control my speed and link turns on a green run.

Ability to link strong snowplough turns or working towards plough parallel. I feel comfortable on green runs but rarely venture onto blue runs and comfortable using a ski tow.

I ski blue runs confidently and can get down red runs when the conditions are good.

I am able to ski parallel turns and I am starting to pole plant. I can ski all blue runs and some reds. May be unsure when it's steep, narrow or icy.

I ski red runs and most black runs when the conditions are good.

I am able to ski strong parallel turns with a pole plant on all red runs and some black runs. I would like to explore more varied terrain and improve technique.

Note. At this level we only offer private lessons as they can be better geared to the needs of the individual.
