To be honest, beginners often can't enjoy skiing or snowboarding. Falling hurts. And it's cold. It's good to go skiing with experienced people and get taught, but there are also experienced people there, so it's common for people to be thrown off halfway through skiing. I was thrown off at the top when I was a beginner and fell over.
