[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you and your spouse do not ski there is no point in teaching your kids to ski. Lessons only go so far, they need time "free" skiing to develop the skills. They can learn as adults if they want. [/quote] +1. How will they practice? They need adult supervision on the slope. I always thought a great service for a skiing teen would be Buddy on the slopes. Parents would pay the teen to ski with their kid like a babysitter. No lessons, kid has to be able to manage their own equipment, kid is responsible for their own lunch, etc. But the kid would have a buddy on the mtn that isn't a parent.[/quote] It depends on the age of the kids. Ski school and then beginner slope can be handled by kids alone. As they get better, the front facing greens. Agree that an adult would have to be onsite but not necessarily on the mountain. Kids learn so fast.[/quote]
