As a program sponsor for the snowsports industry's two initiatives to grow participation, Learn to Ski and Snowboard Month and the Bring a Friend Challenge, Mountain Sports Club is pleased to offer the Beginner’s Guide to Snowboarding and the Beginner’s Guide to Skiing.

This is a free YouTube video series that shows new skiers and riders what to expect on their first day. You can these videos to share tips and tricks with your students to help them get started so they can focus on the most important part of skiing and riding when they hit the slopes: having fun! Two members of the PSIA-AASI National Team cover skills such as how put on gear, get up after a fall, and stop.

We welcome readers/members and subscribers to link to these videos or share these videos on your social media channels to share and help get more people started and to encourage participation in skiing and snowboarding.

Mountain sports club 2016.17 Discount program for skiers and snowboarders

Once again the Mountain Sports Club premium memberships are available for consumers featuring resorts across North America who offer daily lift ticket discounts ranging from BOGO to daily savings.  This will be the 11^th season for the Mountain Sports Club. Our members simply join to be able to access personalized vouchers that are presented at the resorts and merchants for the discounts. 

The program has proven to be an excellent value for families getting into or back into the sport as there are also extensive rental discounts at shops across our network of merchant partners.

To access the discounts members set up a user name and password that once logged in enables them to access, download and print the personalized coupons/vouchers that are redeemed for the savings. Most offers can be used day after day but are limited to one use per member per day. 

The annual price of a membership is $50. This value is recovered often in the first use with the many BOGO discounts and daily lift ticket savings. With discounts at over 40 resorts and counting across North America more and more skiers and snowboarders use the service each year. 

The Mountain Sports Club will once again be a promotional sponsor for the National Learn to Ski and Snowboard/Bring a Friend campaign. This provides a one year memberships for new participants to the sport enabling them to sample more areas. 

During the month of January we will also run our New Year,New Gear and Lift Tickets Too sweepstakes to encourage more people to get out and ski and snowboard. It is fun and an easy way to try and win lift tickets and gift certificates to shops. Go here to participate - http://mountainactionnetwork.hqcampaign.com/ps/mountain-sports-club-jan2017.

National Learn to Ski/Snowboard Month

January is the National Learn to Ski and Snowboard month with incredible savings and packages designed to introduce new participants to skiing and snowboarding. Mountain Sports Club is pleased to be a proud sponsor of this industry program.

Nationwide resorts offer a wide range of promotions to introduce the magic of snow and the mountains. 

Another notable program is the Bring a Friend Challenge. Most newcomers are introduced to skiing and snowboarding through a friend or family member. "Bring a Friend" is a way to share your love of skiing and snowboarding by helping beginners sign up for lessons from professional instructors. You may be a long-time skier or snowboarder or a beginner yourself. Check out their videos too!
