The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard
The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.
We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.
We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

My friend's daughter went last year to ski school for the first time at 5. It was windy, cold (10 degrees) and snowing. It was a miserable day but she wanted to be outside the entire time skiing. the other kid in the class wasn't as enthusiastic about it and he was older. It just depends on the kid.

my older kids starting skiing @ 4, then switched to snowboarding around 8. the youngest started @ 3 and switched last yr @ 5 to boarding. she can board from the top down, but only on one edge. the key for our kids was to stay for a week straight and when they got tired we pulled the plug and did something else, coming back later when they weren't as tired. they could all ski pretty good after a week.
