Beginners Section.
Whitetail Ski Resort is one of the few resorts in Pa. The image below shows the outline of the resort. Each path is designed for beginner, intermediate, and advance snowboarders and skiers. When I was taught how to snowboard three years ago a friend took me down sidewinder. This allowed me to learn how to control myself better, and have a better understanding of how to learn to turn. Now four years later I am going down Limelight and Angels drop which are advance trails. Also, one of my favorite spots is the jib junction. This is where all the jumps and pipes are. The first time I got big air I came down and smacked my face on the ice, but it takes a few times to understand how to land perfectly to where you don't fall. Now I can’t wait till winter comes around. It’s my favorite season, I get so excited to get all my boards and jacket out on the slops. Before every first ride of the year, any snowboarder should get their board waxed. This allows your board to ride smoother on the snow. If someone is starting out as a beginner, they should think about getting a used board and bindings which is where your boots strap into on the board. On October 27 there is a ski and snowboarding swap at the Whitetail Ski Resort, which is where someone can buy used boards, skis, jackets ect. so if someone is a new skier then they won’t mess up a new board.
