The school has three types of chair to accompany you:
– Tandem ski: allows the instructor to take along people who are very dependent,
– Dual ski: allows you to try to be independent. The instructor is there if needed,
– Uniski: enables people with sufficient arm strength to ski independently after a few lessons. The instructor skis next to the wheelchair.
