Right, I had a Taos buddy who was drafted and played ECHL for a bit. He was elite as a skier within 5 seasons of starting, it was absolutely remarkable how intuitive and strong he was as a new skier.
Interestingly, he preferred no base bevel. No base bevel, base bevel zero degrees. Sharp to the tip and tail. I couldn’t ski his grabby-ass skis to save my life…he loved that shit.

My ex would take all women’s classes and loved them. My mother taught the all women’s classes when I was a kid and really pushes this as the way for grown female identifying people to learn how to ski or learn new skills. Guys add pressure and stress while using “just” too often, conveying that there are simple fixes to constant failures in their technique. Highly frustrating and avoidable.
Someone once told me that I ski like a Scandinavian angel.

Epic offers 20% off lessons. So I’d take her to Beaver Creek, where they probably get better tips.
Put her in a morning lesson and ski with her after.
They’ll never let you pick your instructor for a group lesson.
