Little Rippers (Age 6+7)

Little Rippers is for younger skiers 6-7 years old (four-year-olds will be accepted on an individual basis, email snowsports@montanasnowbowl.com for more info) whether they are just beginning or have been skiing for some time. Group sizes are smaller to ensure a great instructor-student learning experience. All participants will receive a full-day lift ticket at the start of each session. There are a lot of breaks, snacks, and games to support the skiing portion of the lesson, so the younger skiers can learn at a pace just right for them. For the beginners, lessons will begin on the rope tow and most students progress to ride the chair lift to ski beginner and intermediate runs later in the program. For the intermediate skiers focus will be on transitioning from wedge to parallel turns within the limits of the physical development (strength, coordination, and stamina). Black diamond runs will be explored and fun will be a primary goal! Register by January 2nd to save $20 on registration!
