FAQs
What should I wear?
As for all lessons we recommend weather appropriate clothing that covers your hands, arms and legs.
Trousers should be loose fitting around the ankle to go over the ski boot.
Long sleeves are required along with a pair of gloves (can be purchased for £1 at reception).
For a camp what ability level do I need to be?
You must be a confident parallel skier or in our final levels for group lessons (Grizzly Bears for juniors or Level 4 for adults) to join race training. If you are unsure about this please contact reception on 01782 204159.
All abilities are catered for at our Kids Holiday Camps although if they are completely new to skiing they MUST attend the first day of the relevant camp as that is when we run the introduction to skiing lessons.
We cannot cater for snowboarding at our Holiday Camps.
When are the race training sessions and do I need to book?
Race training runs weekly on Tuesdays (6:30pm – 8:30pm) and Saturdays (1:00pm – 3:30pm).
Weekly sessions do not require pre-booking but if it is your first session please contact us on 01782 204159 or send a message to stoke.scorpions@gmail.com.
Can anyone join the race camps?
Our race camps have a minimum age of 8 years old and are for experienced ski racers. If you are unsure please contact reception on 01782 204159 or send a message to stoke.scorpions@gmail.com to register your interest.
Do I need to book?
YES! our sessions do fill up quickly. To avoid disappointment please call 01782 204159 to book a slot.
How long is a session?
All of our tubing sessions last 45 mins and all equipment is cleaned between each tubing session.
WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FUN SLOPE AND ADRENALIN TUBING?
Very simply the Fun Slope is shorter and does not require use of the lift to get up the slope. Our Adrenaline Slope has a much longer slide time and therefore uses a lift, it also slides faster! Our Fun Slope Tubing is suitable for ages 2+ and costs £7. Our Adrenaline Slope is for ages 9+ and costs £12 per person.
IS THERE AN UPPER AGE LIMIT?
NO! Anyone of any age can go tubing (so far our oldest is 81) however we remind you that it is a strenuous activity and personal levels of fitness should be assessed before participating.
WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?
Tubing is an outdoor activity and as such we recommend weather appropriate clothing. The only thing we insist is that footwear is trainer-like and is not heeled or open.
WHY IS THERE AN AGE RESTRICTION ON ADRENALINE TUBING?
Due to the use of the ski lift to get up the slope, we ask that all participants are aged 9 or above, this is to keep all participants safe around the lift area.
When are you open?
We are open everyday but our hours vary, check our home page or Contact Us page for more information. Our tubing slots are pre-defined however so you can only book on to the time slots available.
