If you go to mountain creek they have a beginner area that’s not even on the mountain and then there’s a smaller area to learn before going to the first lift which takes you up a fairly small hill, that’s honestly the spot to go, or just do like I did back in the day, strap in and send it and eat shit for the afternoon haha, you’ll most likely learn how to plow heelside first because it’s easier, once you get that down you’ll be able to turn left and slow yourself (provided you’re regular footed). After that it’s just a matter of learning toe side turns which can be scary cause if you catch an edge you’re eating shit onto your back. I dated a girl once and taught her to ride and she’d only turn left and she rode pretty well for years, eventually you’ll get it! Good luck, 27 is a bit late to the game but your body will still heal fairly quick!
