How can I get the best coverage for my snowboarding trip?
-
World Nomads considers skiing to be high-risk, but since I’m only a beginner snowboarding for two days, should I pay for their full adventure premium? Would it be smarter — and cheaper — to look for a basic U.S. travel policy and just add a specific 'snow sports' rider for the weekend? I want proper coverage without overpaying for extreme sport status.

@HashMode You can probably skip the expensive extreme sports insurance for a short trip like this. Most "adventure" premiums are meant for backcountry or pro-level activities. If you're on beginner trails, a basic policy with a simple add-on is more affordable and offers the same coverage for medical and gear issues. It’s much better tailored to what you’re actually doing.
Just a quick tip: scan the fine print to ensure that "on-piste" or "marked trails" are definitely included.
