Bags,
What's the deal with the Thurs night freestyle coaching mentioned at the bottom of your posts? I'm coming through next Thurs, but mainly because it's a cheap night and because there is a couple of things to play on, otherwise it can be a bit boring.
I'm a total beginner to freestyle, although I have boarded on and off for 15years. If the coaching is on, and it's not too dear, then might give it a go. Any info greatly appreciated.
Cheers, Jon |

| From what I've seen at Braehead the coaching goes as far as instructors on the slope who offer advice and some coaching if you approach them. Last Snostorm I went to there was me and another who wanted to do bs180s and front boards, ended up getting 2 hrs of 1 on 2 tuition |

There will be a ski and board coach available at SNO!Storm, to assist when needed. They will be mainly working around the rookie area which is very popular giving on the spot advice. It will be Laura for ski and Keri for board. It's part of Storm, no cost or booking required. |

Thursdays are coaching nights and on board we have a rookie and intermediate session, almost every week. If you are a complete rookie then there is a session for you. Thursdays are setup with coaching/progression in mind. Friday is the main riding night for freestyle. |

- Is there an additional cost for the coaching? If so, how much?
- Do you need to book it?
- Is it a solid hour/couple of hours at a time - i'm coming through from Edinburgh with some mates, and don't want to just drop them for 2 hours or so.... it would be too rude!!
What i'm really getting at, is it like sno storm where there is someone on standby to offer advice as and when you need it, or is this proper 1 to 1 (or group) coaching?
Thanks |

Was heaving in Xscape this afternoon. Loads of kids. Are they off school?
The lessons were full which sucked. I thought they'd be quiet on a Friday afternoon 'cause people are at work/school. |
