Ski's ONLY for piste ski-ing...blues and reds....soft and bendy

So, ise how's the job as Ischgl's roving ski ambassador going these days? :D

Those Scott's you have would be standing out a bit I reckon :lol:

you've been reading my blog :D

It's not without the odd good run, the descent in Samnaun is as a good red/blue/mauve/cerise/whatever run as you'll find anywhere for example. It's a long season but even then you could go to Obergurgl which is about 10 times better on any comparison for any ability.

Er, do you have any designer gear though? Brands like Kjus or Bogner? Without the right clothes, folks will stare )

Serre Che is a much better place for decent skiing and with no daft clothes on show either :D

Edit: Apart from the occasional neon Fartbag wearer, with 25 year old rear entry boots :D Photos please!

Well, no, Bandit, in a word. I dont see the point in paying those prices, although I have been hankering after an Arc'Teryx jacket for a while now.
Kjus stuff does look nice, and its really good material.
I stick to North Face in the main.

I know someone who has a Kjus jacket and trousers, come to think of it.......



:D

I prefer :



Kjus is good stuff though, I've had that a few seasons and it's wearing well.

What are those skis, ise, they look almost Zag shaped?
