can anyone give me their comments on what snow bording is like for first timers, I have never boarded before and want to know what borovetts is like?re: Learn to snowboard
Little hard for the first couple of days but stick with it. The learning curve is much faster than on skis so after a couple of days you should be able to get down the hill with some style and having a blast at the same time. It's highly advisable to take a lesson.Happy boarding

Hi
I first learnt to snowboard back in 2000, i was a basic ski at the time. Greens and blues only. I found that i fell over more as a beginner on snowboarding than skiing, but you seem to progress quicker. My friends with me on the course were all good skiiers, (Blacks runs) found it frustrating being on a crowded beginners slope and not in the mountains. They also found it difficult learning something new again

Last year i tought my daughter (almost to snowboard on a on a fairly flattish area. In 2, 1 hour sessions she could do basic link turns .
I have never been to Bulgaria to ski or board so i cant comment on what it is like. I know i struggled for the first few years on drags, and dont like boarding down narrow runs.
Tip. To reduce hurting your back/bum i boarded with a small rucksack (35 litres) with just a coat in it for padding.
Hope this helps

re: Learn to snowboard
The best of advice I can give is to get yourself some incontinence pads, I tried it for the first time the other day, and very nearly wet myself laughing either that or start on the pelvic floor exercises
