[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you planning on skiing a lot? My 13 year old had never skied and I sent him with his uncle (my brother) and his older cousins to Deer Valley. He learned to ski in a day with his cousins just by being taken up and down the bunny slope twice then to the greens and the blues. The second day he could solidly ski blues and tried a black run. The third day he could ski black runs in powder with moguls.

So glad I didn't pay for ski lessons when he was younger. We were thinking of going skiing one year but the pandemic ruined our plans. I just mention it because doing other sports (he skateboard, surfs, plays soccer, etc) makes it really easy to learn how to ski. My sister spent thousands on private ski lessons when her kids were young. They would only ski once a year so I am not sure it was really worth the cost. [/quote]

Your son may have been able to get down those blue and black runs but there’s no way he did it with appropriate control. [/quote]

He did. It’s not that hard to learn to ski if you are a coordinated 13 year old who likes some adventure. [/quote]
