Hi, I'm looking for a relatively cheap resort in France to ski in. It also has to have a fun park as well as an air bag to do tricks (wanna try some somersaults). Any one has any recommendations?

Not all that many snow parks are equipped with air bags, they tend to be in the bigger resorts. Tignes, Meribel, 2Alpes, Les Gets, all have them.
Your best bet would probably be to look for a bargain off peak holiday in one of those.

La Plagne has also got air bags, but not necessarily all that cheap.

I went to Chamonix last year and im pretty sure they had an airbag there when i went. I used Action Outdoors for the accommodation so it was super cheap but pretty good. There might also be one in Tignes, but my memory is a bit foggy after my week in Tignes !

There was one in Tignes when we were there last season at the bottom of the Grattalu lift. We were stuck on the lift for 20 minutes with a mechanical problem right next to the airbag. Entertaining stuff!

There was one in St.Gervais last season.

From http://www.ski-saintgervais.com

New Snowpark for the 13-14 winter season

The Saint-Gervais ski resort this year is associated with HO5, specialist in the development and management of recreational and sports courses in order to propose a snowpark that meet the expectations of our customers.

Located in the middle of the resort and served by the Montjoux chairlifts, the "WOSP" will propose:
a family section : boarder cross, fun jumps, Big Air Bag
a more technical section with original modules and a jib zone.
The plan is.... there's no plan!

Risoul has one - don't know when it's open (the air bag, not the resort)

There's definitely one in Chamonix (Le Brevent area) and sure there's one in Avoriaz too.
