Poster: A snowHead
|
Hello,
new to the forum, so please be gentle.
I am a skier, but my nephew has converted from skiing to boarding. He's done a couple of weeks on snow, and to me looks OK, but I think he will need more lessons when next we go.
Which brings me on to the question. Can any snowHeads suggest a good school for a 15 year old boarder in Val d'Isere for next Feb?
I can't find any on the web that do group lessons for teenagers as such, which were a hit last time we went away (to Whistler) - that would be ideal. Otherwise, I suppose an adlut group might be the way forward.
Thanks in advance
John

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

In the end, we used Evolution 2 and they were fine

Dunno if it's any help but my son was 16 on our first trip and I booked him into an adult group in Val Thorens which was mainly teens anyway.... they don't seem to stick to what's advertised & it was fine - he had a week of morning lessons & then hung out during the afternoon with kids he'd met in the morning.
And welcome to the twighlight zone

I prefer "creature of the twilight" - but then I have been drinking too much hemlock recently.

Misty Fly in Val. I was there the year before last and couldn't get a booking the first day so booked for later in the week and used another instructor instead. Had a lesson with the Misty Fly guy towards the end of the week and there was no comparison - these guys live to board and made everything seem easy....just wish that I'd had that lesson earlier in the week.
