My Plan, Is to learn how to Turn and Stop and also learn other basic skills, and I'm planning to - start off with an instructor or get Mr Wyers or Mr Mann to help

me with learning how to stop and turn- then go off on my own and try and do it by myself staying on small

hill- then keep practising till I’m confident enough in myself - to go to the top of the summit hill and try and get to the bottom

without stacking.
