Hello all,
I am after a bit of advice re skiing lessons. My boyfriend and I are going back to Borovets in February. I learnt to ski there in 2006, in the beginners class. My boyf had skied twice before and joined the intermediate group. My question really is will I now be considered intermediate or still a beginner? I suppose it will be down to how confident I am. I was able to do quite well by the end of the week. I don't really want to spend the first couple of days on the nursery slopes ...

We have not skied since Feb 2006 and in that time my boyfriend had quite a bad ankle and foot fracture. He is now fine, able to run etc. but I think he is wondering if he should go intermediate again or try advanced group, if such a thing exists?!
I hope all this makes sense, I would be grateful for any of your pearls of wisdom.
Thanks

re: 2nd time = intermediate?
they will test your ability and put you a class to suit.re: 2nd time = intermediate?
you would be beginners really. If he's that good then why does'nt he take you off and give you some pointers
re: 2nd time = intermediate?
Emz you are certainly not a beginner mate. As Sam said they will decide what group msuits your ability.re: 2nd time = intermediate?
I think we are confusing the term beginner here. Emz in terms of skiing you are indeed still at the begining but you should not go into a learn to ski group.re: 2nd time = intermediate?
its impossible for others to know if they havent seen you ski. You know yourself best, so if you think its a waste of time and money to be in a beginner class, well then you are probaly right. Just dont move up a class to fast, cause it will be even worse to be in a group you are not good enough for.re: 2nd time = intermediate?
hi emz join beginners again your instructor will advice you to move up to int if you need it there is fourteen of us going in jan some will rejoin beginners some int and some will free ski you will find your level in a couple of days by the end of the week we are all sking togetherre: 2nd time = intermediate?
when I went this year in feb, as was said before we were assesed and put into the appropriate group. During the week a few people were moved around up and down.re: 2nd time = intermediate?
emz you are what you are. with 7-10 days under your belt you know where you have to join next time.re: 2nd time = intermediate?
Best advice is to get yourself to one of the indoor ski slopes in the uk before you go. that will get rid of the cobwebs and then you will be able to answer the question yourself. It will also save you a day in the resort finding your feetCheers
