Description
Your snowboard instructor builds on your skills. Depending on your level, he practices different abilities and techniques with you. Beginners learn to maintain their balance. After that, your instructor helps you practice gliding to gain initial success experiences on flat terrain. Once the basics are established, you will start making your first turns and learn to control your speed on easy blue slopes. With growing experience, the technique becomes more precise, allowing you to master and ride red slopes smoothly.
