00. How to get off the ski lift
Learning how to “skate/glide” off the ski lift is the first key to a nice day on the mountain.
Try this a couple of times on flat land before you go on a ski lift.
- Have only the front foot strapped in, and use the back foot to skate laterally.
It’ll take a few tries but don’t be discouraged — like everything else, the more you do it the better you’ll get at it!
0. Learning to stop
Keep your board horizontal/perpendicular to the trail.
