Instructor Continuity: Interested in more than one day with the same instructor?
Ski multiple days with the same instructor/coach/guide at the same or different ski resorts. Instructor continuity accelerates your learning leveraging various terrain and the best conditions. To insure availability book multiple days during your initial reservation.
I am willing to change my first choice ski area based on ProPowderguides recommendation for maximum available terrain for my reported ability level.*
Many environmental factors play a major role in using our time wisely to optimize each participant's ability to excel. These factors are well known if you ski these resorts as much as we do, but escape the casual visitor. Some of the criteria we actively consider: Terrain available by ability level, chair lift speed (or more importantly lack of speed) to that terrain, over-crowded slopes, best snow conditions by day, resorts who consistently do not open terrain suitable for your ability level and advertise otherwise, weather/wind that is historically known to close lifts thereby dramatically limiting available terrain..
- YES, I am willing to accept ProPowderGuides recommendation to maximize my learning time.
- NO, I am unwilling to accept ProPowderGuides recommendation to maximize my learning time.
