The French Ski School of La Chapelle d'Abondance offers group or private lessons for all levels, from beginners to advanced.
The different levels of group lessons or private snowboard lessons:
You're getting on "the board" for the first time or you've tried 1 or 2 times with friends but it's been a hassle, so come join our troops.
I get up alone.
I follow several edge changes on a low slope (backside and frontside).
I skid while describing an elementary flare.
I am able to maintain a direct track facing the slope and mark a stop.
1st snowboard:
To perfect your style and continue your progress, join us.
I chain several elementary turns on a low slope.
I draw the dead leaf in backside and frontside.
I am able to perform a voluntary flat plank jump and an elementary pivoted scallop.
2nd board:
To stay in the rhythm.
I evolve in a large radius base turn on a medium slope.
