Skiing

Piste conditions for learners -
It’s all about confidence.
Too hard/icey difficult to stop and turn, skis can fly away. It hurts when you fall and you may not stop. Lose confidence
Too soft - skis grip unexpectedly, fall. Difficult to see bumps and hollows resulting in unexpected shifts in weight. It doesn’t hurt so much when you fall. But you still lose confidence.
Too shallow - can’t get enough speed to use weight on outside ski to turn in snow plough. Lots of poling to move anywhere. Knackering.
Too steep - too much speed, snow plough to manage speed is difficult and tiring without good technique.
We took a mate in his first ski holiday a few years back. It was a lesson for us all. What I thought of as a simple roller to get onto the easy stuff was a cliff. Long flat paths are not good places to learn. Beginners get tired and want to be able to see an end. In the end I told everyone to bugger off and I spent time with him on my own.
In my experience if you’re gonna have a beginner in the group ski with them 1-1 not in the group. They don’t need multiple ideas as to how to improve. It just overloads and confuses.
And finally the pressure of the group is immense and can overwhelm beginners, be gentle with them.
