SNOWBOARDING PANTS BOYS
Snowboarding for the 1st time. Do we need lessons and all the expensive snow board clothing. 150.00 pants?
I live in Florida, my self and my boy friend and another couple are going to Canada / Niagara falls area for 5 days. After looking into it the prices for lessons were 80.00 a person incl. lesson,lift and rental at Glen Eden. This seems a bit pricey to me . I am so snow cluless that I had to google what the heck to wear!..lol There is all this stuff about base layer and mid layers and then the jacket and pants.. The pants alone start at 150.00. Is this insane to pay $300.00-400.00 a person just for a one day thing or is this all really necessary? It s I’m pretty sure I will never need it again living in Florida.
DEFINITELY take a lesson!! Your day will be very painful and frustrating without a lesson… trust me! I learned the hard way! In fact, I became a snowboard instructor just so that other people don’t have to learn the way I did.
You’ll hear a lot about what to wear or not wear. Don’t go out and buy anything, unless necessary. Borrow as much as you can and go to WalMart or SportChek or something similar for anything else you’ll need. Don’t worry about buying fancy brand name stuff if you’re just going to be doing it for this one time.
Here are my suggestions: Don’t wear jeans. Wear pajama pants and snowpants. Under your winter coat, a fleece is ideal, if you have one, because it’s so warm. If not, a shirt and a hoody will be just fine. A warm hat and waterproof gloves are a must.
What’s nice about Glen Eden is that you can buy a variety of passes. There are discounted lift tickets for students and for beginners. You can also buy a ticket for the day, for the evening, or for both. They used to have a 4-hour ticket, although I don’t know if they still offer that.
Enjoy your trip up here to Canada and happy snowboarding!
