My daughter will be good enough to ski the reds on top of the mountain this year but from memory the drags are pretty challenging both in length but more so in gradient and more importantly not skiable if you fall off them (not that I did!!!).
Does anyone know if a 10 year old will be able to hack drags 7, 8 or 9 - I can't remember whether or not I saw anyone of that age on there or alternatively is there any other mode of transport down those runs?

Advice on this one please:

Well, I know those drags well as I am not a fan of drag lifts. I weigh 14 stone and they pull me off my feet on the first two tugs. After that the gradient is steep but not too bad. As you know the biggest problem is when somebody in front falls off and you have to scoot around them.

I believe they are more challenging for boarders. I have seen people ski down them, however this is not allowed.

Hi,
My son who is now 12, went on the drag lift 7,8,9 when he was 10. The ski instructor took him up the first time, and then he went on his own. He came off a few times, but thought it was great like a Fair Ride. I'm sure your daughter will be fine, kids have no fear!
