"Nope as I have no requirement being an instructor"

thats a bit aragont, you never stop progressing in snowboarding and theres allways gonna be something someone can teach you that you dont know . even if its something very very minor.

Thank you for that, I didnt really know what I wanted to learn I think it was to help with my turns more and maybe for the confidence but sounds like practise is the way to go for now.

Thank you for your help.

when you get enough confidence to make the board go exactly where you want it to go, you should go to the progression sessions, it also helps if you know when you go what you want to learn eg 50-50's, boardslides, also you have to meet the instructors so they know who you are and don't forget to book on, if you don't and there is no one booked in, then the helpers generally don't come out if they got no one to see.

Thanks for that, I might just go for a couple of practise sessions on my own and get a bit more confident and then go for the progession session.

Have you done the progression session before?

It's up to you Sam. It may be worth doing some riding on your own, but it's starting to get quiet so there's a possibilty you may end up with some personal tuition or a small group. Drew who does the Monday night session is very good.

Hi

Just a quick question has anyone here done the progression session at tamworth. I am thinking of doing it and was wondering if it is any good for someone who has just done their finisher? Or would you advise to just get some general practise in?

Thanks

Sam
