SLC Snowboard Instructor Recommendation - Snowboarding Forum

Towkin · 09-22-2011, 02:06 PM

I’m taking my wife on a trip to Utah this winter and wanted to know if anyone had a suggestion for a quality snowboard instructor. We will be riding at Brighton, Solitude, and maybe snowbird (if she feels comfortable enough). She has been riding several times in the Poconos, so she can do the basics (strap in, lifts, etc.), but needs to focus on turning and progressing from there. She started getting it good last year but I forced a late season trip in shitty conditions (and a board WAY too big for her) that destroyed her confidence. Anyone you can recommend? Thanks.

I'm not sure if he still works there, but 4 or 5 years ago I was at solitude and a really good instructor I had was named Life but he may have left by now but at all of those resorts there's good instructors that can help her at that level and higher levels when she improves.
