Do you have your own equipment for you ski/snowboard lesson? If so, ensure you check the following before arrival:

Boots & Bindings

Try the boots on to make sure they still fit! Poorly fitted boots can lead to a negative experience.

A couple of things to check for regarding how your boots/bindings fit together:

• If you are skiing, do your boots snap into your bindings securely?
• If you are snowboarding, are your boots snug when strapped in?
• Are your new boots too big for the bindings, with your toes hanging over the edge?

Check your Edges and Bases

Check both skis and snowboards for severe splits and cracks, or other severe damage. Equipment must be in quality condition to be of safe use.

• Tall wool socks
• Gloves/mittens
• Neck warmer
• Snow Sports Helmet (Included in rental)
• Snowboard boots or ski boots (Included in rental)

Dress in layers so you can adjust your temperature for hill conditions and stay dry.

We recommend you arrive at the lesson check-in, ready to ride, at least 20 minutes early on the first day and 10-15 minutes early on subsequent days (find the location below).

If you are renting equipment, please arrive at the rental department 45 - 60 minutes before your lesson start time.

For a smooth arrival please complete all forms in Steps 1 and 2 above at least 48 hours prior to your lesson.

Parking is free at WinSport. Park in the parking lot of the Frank King Day Lodge located at the main entrance on Olympic Road SW.

We recommend arriving at least 30 minutes before your lesson. If you are renting equipment, please aim to be in the rentals department 45 - 60 minutes prior to your lesson.

When you are ready to start your lesson, head to the on-snow check-in area located between the beginner's area and the main parking lot outside the Day Lodge (next to the flags). There will be signage to help guide you to your destination.

Please note: Guests are not permitted access onto snow to watch lessons. Guests are permitted to view the beginner ski/snowboard area from the flag court, located just east of the Frank King Day Lodge.

Hill access is restricted to hill users in lessons or with a valid lift ticket. All hill users are required to be in ski or snowboard equipment. 

Parents with children in lessons often choose to relax in the Frank King Day Lodge Food Court or the EIGHTYEIGHT Bar & Grill, or take the time for a workout at the Performance Training Centre.
