Session rules

Pre-booking essential

To ski, you MUST be able to control your speed, direction and be confident to use a Poma drag lift.  If you have none or very little skiing experience, you will require tuition prior to being allowed to use the slope recreationally. No straight runs or jumps are allowed.

On arrival you will be required to read and sign a declaration agreeing to the above requirements.  Parents/friends/ non-Gosling ski instructors are not allowed to instruct you. The nursery slope is only for use by instructor led lessons.  Failure to meet the required skiing standard will result in termination of the skiing session without a refund.

For all slope activities you MUST wear appropriate clothing. This includes gloves, long trousers and long sleeves which must be worn at all times on the slope. Trouser bottoms should be wide enough to go over your ski boots. Long socks are recommended.
