The median age of skiers has risen to 35, up from 30 a decade ago and 24 in the 1960s, reflecting a growing adult interest in skiing.
Kyle Murphy, Breckenridge's ski school director, observes many adults entering the sport with trepidation, often insisting they can teach themselves instead of taking lessons.
Murphy emphasizes that skiing is a technical sport, highlighting the necessity of building fundamentals through professional lessons to ensure fun and safety on the slopes.
There’s a rising trend of adults, particularly baby boomers, taking up skiing as they gain more leisure time and disposable income, proving it's never too late to learn.
