Instructor teaches young snowboarders to sit in dangerous locations, they all do it and now we know its a skill that is passed on to the newbies too.
Idiot instructor.

You should have done a backflip, slopestyle, right over the top of them... :D

It does seem to be quite commonplace sadly....

Just little kids, reckon they were around 8yo. Very bad example set by instructor Luigi

That should sort things out.

You never see groups of plumbers sitting across the piste... 8)

When we were in Folgarida I saw an instructor putting his whole class of little kids at risk. They looked like they were only 4 or 5 years old, on skis, and there was a long line of them following the instructor right across the piste, leaving only a tiny gap at one side.
What made things even worse was that it was very foggy and hard to see this line of small kids. I did have half a mind to tell the instructor how dangerous it was. But I thought he wouldn't appreciate my remarks, and very likely he wouldn't have been able to understand English anyway.
But at least I didn't flatten any of those poor little kids!

I would have thought instructors, whether they're teaching ski-ing or snowboarding, would be more careful and show by example how to stay safe on the ski slopes.

Hi All,

Went to Snozone for some practice before a recent holiday and an instructor had board kids sat tightening their bindings in the middle of the slope there !!!!!!

I had a go at him when a young skier nearly hit one of them !!

No wonder they do it when out of the fridge.
