Guidance on ADULT SKIER levels for New Generation is as follows (see their Web Site for video clips to gauge your level):
| Level 1 | This is my first time |
| Level 2 | I have tried skiing on snow or on a dry slope. I can turn, but find green runs a challenge |
| Level 3 | I can control my speed and turn on green slopes. My skis are in a plough most of the time |
| Level 4 | I ski parallel on blue runs but the plough comes back when it gets steep, narrow or icy |
| Level 5 | I ski red runs in good conditions. I enjoy going fairly fast, but struggle when it gets bumpy, steeper, icy or the snow gets deep |
| Level 6 | I can ski all reds and get down most blacks as well provided they are not too steep or bumpy |
| Level 7 | I can ski most places. Blacks are no problem and I enjoy off-piste. |
Guidance on CHILDREN'S SKIER levels for New Generation is as follows:
| Wallabies | This is my first time |
| Arrows | I can ski a green run, controlling my speed, use a drag lift and might have tried a blue run |
| Bombers | I can 'bomb' down blue runs and sometimes get down a red run as well |
| Rockets | I can ski "everywhere" - reds and beyond |
Guidance on SNOWBOARDING levels for New Generation is as follows:
| Level 1 | This is my first time on a snowboard |
| Level 2 | I can stop and turn on both my toe and heel edge |
| Level 3 | I can ride and turn on blue runs |
| Level 4 | I am ready to ride all of the mountain |
