A new winter sport in the 80s, snowboarding became a fully-fledged sport and part of our ski culture today. Physically demanding, when you first start doing it, it comes with new thrills at every turn.
In order to increase the child's knowledge and curiosity, the ESF offers a fun introduction to snowboarding suitable for children between 6 and 10 years old.
The objective will be a simple introduction to this source of new thrills in a secure environment.
To become a Goomie Rider, you must know about:
turns: crossing in a straight line followed by a curved sideslip, forwards and backwards and passing 2 of the following 3 tests:
- autonomy: use the lifts in a protected environment
- fakie: perform 'falling leaf' side-sliding backwards and forwards.
- basic attitude: make a straight run on a flat board while bending down and standing up straight
For over 10s, after the first experience as a Goomie Rider, you'll want to improve and have more autonomy, you'll want to try and move up to Rookie Rider level.
