Airboarding!
We
introduced the latest trend in winter sports during the 05/06
ski season.
Snowboarding on inflated “air-rockets” is the newest
craze in this mountainous state.
The sport is more maneuverable
than snow tubes, they travel much faster and by shifting body
posture airboarders can come to a complete stop within a few
feet.
The resort is also the first ski area in the country to
offer an Airboard terrain park. Check out their
airboarding rates by clicking here.
Après Ski?
Canaan Valley offers many exciting "escapes" such as ice skating rink, indoor pool, health club, and game room are
all offered at the Lodge. Cross country skiing, snowshoeing,
snow tubing, and night skiing also are available. Snowboarding
is allowed on all slopes.
