Firstly, customer service at both checkyeti and Altitude Ski & Snowboard School was FANTASTIC. The communication and follow-up made booking really easy, instructions were also crystal clear. Pick-up for our rental equipment at Buri Sport was also a breeze. Jon met us at Kleine Scheidegg early and we went right into it. He provided a lot of useful tips for me as a first-timer and also to my partner as a beginner. Honestly, learned more in these 5 hours then we did trying to learn it by ourselves without an instructor. He was also very easy to chat with, friendly and most importantly, patient. He was very encouraging, and made snowboarding look like a walk in the park (although it isn't!). Thank you so much Jon, checkyeti, Altitude and Buri Sport for an afternoon well-spent! No regrets getting a private instructor, and definitely highly recommended!
It went really well, in the same day I was able to safely navigate blues and some reds. I was instructed by Jhon super friendly instructor with an expert eye to what's slowing your progress
Valters was very professional, and explained everything exactly as I needed to hear it. He would also demonstrate everything before having me do anything. Valters would also tell you minor corrections as you are parforming the movement, and afterwards he would explain exactly what you may have done wrong, and what you can fix, as well as what you did correctly. Highly recommend Valter!
You should wear warm clothing suitable for winter sports. Other accessories such as gloves, a ski mask and sunglasses are strongly recommended.
You must arrive at the first lesson with your equipment (skis and poles or snowboard, and boots). If you do not have your own equipment, make sure to allow enough time to collect it from the rental shop so as not to delay the start of the lesson. Some shops even offer the option of collecting equipment the day before your first day of hire.
Wearing a helmet is compulsory for children in some countries, but it is strongly recommended for everyone, regardless of age.
Unless otherwise stated, you must have your ski pass with you for the first lesson. You can usually buy one at the ski lift office or online. Discounted rates may be available for children or beginners, so check with your ski school to find out which pass is most suitable.
