Snowboarding Lessons
Learn to ski & ride at Hard'ack. BFA Varsity Ski Team Coach Steve Wunsch and ski team members and BFA Snowboard Club with coach Brett Walker team up to teach ski & ride lessons at Hard'ack.  The hill is closed to the public for these special nights of lessons. Only kids registered for programming will be allowed to ski/ride. The hill will be closed immediately following lessons.  Bundle up and join us - 'cause if you can ski/ride Hard'ack you can go anywhere! Each participant must supply their own equipment. Lessons are weather (snow :)) dependant. These lessons are for beginners.

Ski Lessons will be on Wednesday evenings.
Snowboard Lessons will be on Thursday evenings.

Our philosophy?  We want this to be a great introductory experience for participants.  We have the hill for one hour, however if it is extremely cold lessons may run 30-45 minutes depending upon how the kids are holding up.  It's not fun when you're freezing :( 

Program Note:  Please understand that this schedule is subject to change due to hill/weather conditions as well as changes to the competition schedule of the team members who instruct the classes.  We're all at the mercy of the elements and will try to keep you informed as quickly as possible of any necessary changes.











Ski & Ride Lessons
  • Remember: Hard'ack has a great old school rope tow. Wear tough mittens - not yarn.
  • Don't wear anything (coat) brand new- because the rope really wears on the side of your coat.
  • Make sure hair is tucked in and under hats.
  • No long stocking type hats or scarves.

* Adjustments and discounts will be applied during checkout if applicable. *
