So this is making the news over here in NZ.
Im pretty sure there is more to this than has been published but wondering how the group feels about it?
I have noticed a few people on various FB groups blatantly asking if there are any instructors that would be willing to take them for private lessons and bypass the on mountain official ski school. In most instances they have been politely and sometimes not so politely told that it is illegal and that any instructor caught doing it could lose their job and possibly face prosecution.
It seems that this guy was just helping some friends and in no way was he taking money but as I said the general consensus is that there might be more to the story.
However it does raise the issue of friends helping friends, a parent teaching their children etc etc.
I know I myself have had some great tips from friends but is it now a no no ???
