If you have skied/snowboarded before and are not ready to go to more difficult terrain, develop confidence and improve control by learning to link turns on easiest terrain.

Beginner 3 (B3)
Make the transition to the chairlifts and more difficult terrain. Develop confidence and control on intermediate terrain.
