Snowboarders...

I don't remember the name of the hire shop... but it is located on the end of the Flora Apartments Hotel.... and the guy i had... his name was 'Lexi' very good and helpful, we had our 2 hour lesson and he got me going in no time. He finishes work most days around 3:30pm.... and he does private lessons if anyone wants them. I paid him 20 lev for 1 hour as there were a couple of things i needed help with but we achieved a lot and i would definately recommend him to anyone looking to start snowboarding.

I am saying that thanks to Lexi's lessons i went from a complete novice on a snowboard to being able to comfortably handle turns and stops on the easier slopes from his 3 hours of lessons and that i would highly reccommend him to anybody looking to learn how to snowboard.

Jesus...... i post my honest review and opinion on my stay and everyone ...
