FAQ

What experience do I need to be able to participate in a FREESTYLE course?

Freestyle Easy: About 10 days snowboard pratice (or more). You manage a drifted turn and you ride red rund more or less without problems. In Freestyle you have little or even no experience.

Freestyle Pro: About 2 weeks snowboard practice (or more). You don't have problems with drifted turns on red runs and you already have prior freestyle-experience in slopestyle or in the fun park.

At what age can I start snowboarding?

Kids: In our Riglet course and Private lessons children can start snowboarding from the age of 3. For participation in the Young Boarder Zone courses the children should be aged 6 or 7 to start.

Adults: For adults there is no upper age limit! no-one is too old, with the help of our "Buddy-System" we will guide you step by step and as safe as possible through your first turns.

What is the purpose of a leash?

The use of a leash is mandatory in our BASIC courses and in our Young Boarder Zones! The leash is a safety line for you not to loose the snowboard on the slopes. A snowboard does not have a skistopper and therefore it can turn into a very dangerous object when it shoots down the slopes unbreaked!

How imporant is the use of protection?

Helmet Helmets are mandatory for kids in Austria. Helmets are also recommended for all adults! Wearing a helmet in freestyle is of particular importance.

Wrist guards are particularly in beginner courses of advantage, but from our point of view they are not absolutely nessecary.

Protector Shorts and Kneeguards are often used in harsh snow conditions

Backprotectors are used more and more often in advanced and sporty riding. They are especially used in freestyle (fun park) but also in freeriding.

For the other protectors applies: A well-constructed snowboard lesson is more important than any protective equipment!
