Here's How It Works
The Guaranteed Easy Turn skis are much shorter than you may have tried before, yet they perform in much the same way as longer shaped skis. There's just not so much to get in your way. Their unique design actually encourages easy turns, without you expending all your energy trying to force them around. With professional coaching, in just a couple of hours, you'll start getting the hang of it.
In 2006, we were named a Burton Learn To Ride center and Kids LTR. For 10 years Burton has worked with resorts around the world to offer the Learn To Ride program. Burton Learn To Ride provides learning snowboarders with gear designed to enhance their experience as well as teaching methods to make for an enjoyable and successful first day. Our equipment for beginners is tailored to maximize each individual's learning potential.
What Makes Guaranteed Easy Turn (GETSkiing) a Sure Thing
With our GETSkiing packages, we'll put these hot little skis on your feet (with ski boots, of course). You'll join a teaching pro for a coaching session on the slopes. We GUARANTEE if you are not having more fun than you imagined, the next session's on us. Give us a couple of hours and we'll make a skier out of you. That's all it takes to get started on your new winter fun adventures.
Our first time skier or snowboarder package includes beginner lift ticket, 90 minute lesson and rental equipment. GET lessons start at 9 am, 11 am and 1:30 pm. Please be sure to arrive 45 minutes before your lesson so you can get fitted for your rentals. After your lesson, you're free to keep on skiing and riding with your equipment until the end of the day- this way you'll have a chance to practice what you've learned.
Lesson packages will be sold daily out of the Doc Maynard Center throughout the season.
