My children are riding a ski the first time this weekend. We bought ski boots, ski, helmet, jacket and google. I worried about their safe. Because my daughter is very young. But she was very brave. She could ride a ski alone. Fantastic.!!! She took a lesson 2 times. I want to 3 times. But she was so tired. My son took a lesson 3 times class. So, He was well ski. He was exiting. I can take a snowboard. I want to take a board. Bur it isn't. because i take care of my children. Next time.... I will take a snowboard.
