| Hello peeps
Is it too late in the season to have a go at Ski-ing/Snowboarding for the first time!??
My fiance and I moved here a week ago, and I reckon one of the things we should do as part of our Swiss-ification is have a go at this winter sports lark...
So... any tips? Any volunteers to show us the ropes? What kind of costs are involved with a beginners' day on the slopes? what kit will I need???
We have a car - is it easier to drive or just get the train from Thalwil or wherever?
Sorry for all the questions - but you see, I'm new here ;-)
Cheers
Simon

Its not too late, hell you can even go skiing/boarding during the summer if you really want to.
Search on the forum, there is a load of information available which might get you started. I would recommend trying to get a private lesson on your first attempt and then take it from there. You just need to pick a resort.
We are trying to organise a ski/snowboard get together for all expats this month. Check in on
this thread for more details.
My advice is if you have done boardsports before you might enjoy snowboarding, otherwise skiing is probably a bit easier.
I'm sure Salsa Lover will be along shortly to tell you all you never wanted to know about skiing!
