Fantastic & Knowledgeable Instructor
Duncan is one of the best ski instructors I have ever had! The lessons he gave were fantastic and the knowledge and the way he shares it is next to none. Duncan has the ability to teach everyone from complete beginners all the way through the next generation of ski instructors through his time being a BASI and ISIA Trainer. The lessons are fun, engaging and he finds ways to explain complex ideas in an understandable manner. Highly rated!
