The Best Ways to Prepare for the Winter Season
Right now, you may not know where to start or how to prepare for your Ski Holiday. Below is a list of things you can consider.
SKI LESSONS
If you've never skied before, ski lessons are a great start. Don't attempt the mountains without lessons. Not only is it dangerous for yourself, but also others. There are a variety of ways to learn to ski; ranging from private lessons, a crash course introduction or a package which will take you from a beginner to a recreational standard.

SERVICING
Serviced equipment is just as important as your skills in the sport itself.
​
Firstly, servicing ensures that your equipment is safe to use. The life of your equipment is also extended if you keep on top of it and let's be real, ski equipment is not cheap!
​
If you're thinking about servicing your equipment yourself, just remember that there are different types of waxes for different temperatures. Do your research or have your equipment serviced in the resort you're heading to.
​
If you're looking for someone to look at your ski or board, you can bring them to our experienced servicing team and we'll have a look at them for free to tell you if any work needs doing.
