What’s the best age to learn snowboarding?

We offer private lessons for children from the age of 4 years up.
For snowboard courses we accept children from the age of 7-8 years up.
For adults there is no age limit!

Should I have any prerequisites if I would like to learn snowboarding?

No! Thanks to our special method of teaching snowboarding you’ll learn within few days the basic techniques and you’ll be able to ski down easy slopes.

How big are the snowboard groups?

We form snowboard groups of 4 to 9 participants each.

Do the beginners need a ski pass?

As we do not use any lifts on the first day of the BASIC course the ski pass is not necessary. A return ticket for the Alpe di Siusi chair lift is enough.
For the second and the third day you can buy a ticket at the ski lift and only from the fourth day a ski pass could be worthwhile.
Please discuss the details with your snowboard teacher or ask at one of our offices.
