So they get to keep the skis? ;-)

For $250 for 4days of skiing and lessons I doubt it. Plus it says that it includes rental.
I am guessing that it is like the Burton Learn to Ride program. They just use the equipment brand.

It pretty much says they get to keep the skis.

That kind of sounds like an unbelievable deal. $250 for four days of lessons, lift passes, and a pair of skis with bindings?

There is this line in there:

The adult 4-day Learn To Ski package is available throughout the 2013-14 winter season and is part of Killington’s MAX 5 program, guaranteeing a maximum of five skiers per instructor for every lesson. Participants will learn on beginner Elan eRise skis and will receive a brand new eRise skis and bindings once they complete the program.

That makes me wonder if they need to complete some longer program ("MAX 5") and not just the four day package?
