Whether you are personally into skis or snowboards in Westport , snowy mountains have something for everyone. Winter sports like these can be incredibly exciting and are also a terrific full-body workout. Watch this video clip for a few tips for learning to ski.

If you are a beginner, start by visiting a ski shop in Westport and have a professional determine what type of skis you need and how long they should be. You will also need poles, boots, and bindings. Fortunately, all of these products can be rented. Be sure to dress warm; this includes a hat, gloves, sunglasses, and a warm, waterproof jacket. Walk around and get comfortable in your ski gear before tackling the smallest hill you can find. Position your skis perpendicular to the hill when you reach the top, and hit the slope when you are ready.
