My key snowboarding tip afor Whistler is when it's a powder day, always start on the left of the mountain and move to the right during the day. That's simply because that's where the wind blows it.
In terms of buying kit there, always have a chat with one of the Whistler instructors as they know the best deals in town.
In terms of lessons - I had a guide called Oli Walker who was the business and showed me some excellent runs that I wouldn't have noticed otherwise.
