On the slopes, everyone is responsible; ensure you, your family and friends are prepared
ADVICE FOR ALL SKIERS
Respect lesson schedules.....there are other people in your group
Get insurance and be covered, the rescue teams are not free and the ESF does not reimburse lesson fees.
Hydrate and eat properly. Throughout the day, your body will need it at high altitudes and in both the cold and the sun.
Warm up and stretch your muscles to avoid any unnecessary aches and strains
Choose the correct equipment suited to your level of ability, your size and your activity.
Respect the environment; keep your rubbish with you (papers, handkerchiefs, cigarette butts, wrappers etc..) until you find a bin to dispose of your rubbish properly.
ADVICE FOR PARENTS
Equip your child correctly : ski wear including underlayers, jacket, overalls, helmet, hat, gloves, sunglasses/goggles ; sunscreen, tissues…
Wearing a helmet is highly recommended for children on the slopes
Avoid staying and challenging your child during lessons
Leave the instructors to decide on class and level changes, they are professionals and know how to recognise the level of your child
