My son has been hitting the slopes since he was a babe, but as we bounce around from Vermont resort to resort, he hasnβt ever experienced the benefit of a seasonal lesson program. Last year I had to ask myself βIs now the time to sign him up for a ski lesson?β It was clear that he was ready to get some professional instruction in parallel skiing. He had good edge awareness and control but was still rocking the wedge a lot. It felt like the right time to set him up with a professional.
