==Beginner's Course==
==Beginner's Course==
The beginner's course is a fairly simple course that starts right outside Selmie's Spot and goes directly westward down the [[Hebra Tundra]]. The path is straight forward and ends when Link crosses a bridge, where the Hebra Tundra meets with the [[Biron Snowshelf]]. Towards the end of the main pathway, it forks and Link can go left or right. Alternatively, Link can right in the middle, taking the bumpy path and then leaping off the ledge. This is actually slight faster, but Link might take damage when falling from a higher point.

While surfing, it is recommended to always stay on your shield. Shield surfing is always faster than running and is also faster than paragliding. If Link gets a time under one minute and more than 45-seconds, Selmie tells Link that he has room for improvement, but gives him the option to keep trying at the beginner's course.{{Ref|''You clocked in at 00:46.49... Pretty average time, all told. I'm not too keen on letting you move on, but... Well, I'll make it your call. You comfy where you are, or do you want to push ahead anyway?'' - '''Selmie'''}} Getting a time under 45-seconds will cause Selmie to tell Link he's mastered the beginner's course and it's time to move on.{{Ref|''You clocked in at 00:44.88... Great run! I'm definitely seeing some talent in you. I'd like to see what you can do on a harder slope now. You can consider the advanced course open for business! Make me proud, OK?'' - '''[[Selmie]]'''}}
While surfing, it is recommended to always stay on your shield. Shield surfing is always faster than running and is also faster than paragliding. If Link gets a time over one minute, Selmie will advise Link to stick with the beginner's course, and the advanced course will not be unlocked.

Getting a time under 1:50.00 will be a record time, better than Selmie had ever done. She will reward Link with a [[Knight's Shield]].{{Ref|''You clocked in at 01:46.19?! That's... That's better than I've ever done... You beat my record. What are you still paying me instruction fees for? There's nothing else I can teach you. Well done, champ. A shiny new record deserves a shiny new shield. Here y'go!'' - '''[[Selmie]]'''}}

If Link gets a time under 1:44.00, Selmie will reward Link with the even stronger, [[Royal Shield]]. However, in order to get a time this good, Link will need to cut some corners. Right from the start of the race, turn to the south, traveling down the slope that is just west of the [[Coldsnap Hollow]]. Glancing at the map, Link wants to surf down the gradual slope westward, all the way to [[Lake Kilsie]]. From there, he wants to paraglide to get across the Lake. Link will need to run the last bit of distance to reach the flagpoles in under 1:44.00.{{Ref|''Wow-01:29.39?! You're no slouch! Keep that up, and you could easily go pro someday. A shiny new record deserves a shiny new shield. Here y'go!'' - '''Selmie'''}}
If Link gets a time under 1:35.00, Selmie will reward Link with the even stronger, [[Royal Shield]]. However, in order to get a time this good, Link will need to cut some corners.

A shiny new record deserves a shiny new shield. Here y'go!'' - '''Selmie'''}} Other possible routes include taking the normal route that Selmie intended, and then by veering to the left past a monster camp, which will eventually lead you to the route mentioned previously, and by bypassing the [[Hebra Tundra]] via the [[Biron Snowshelf]]
