Ooops....didnt read that properly. :oops: They must be half day ski school prices here, but the prices at the top (and on the website) do seem to be for the normal ski school hours for both adults and kids!

I think the half days are referring to the snowboarders, who only get 2 hours per day tuition in Niederau, so the prices for ski school will be for the 4 hours, does seem very cheap but if thats the prices they quote you I wouldnt complain! :wink:

They are a great ski school though, Im sure your kids will love it! :D

Just thought I'd start a thread to ask what ski instructors have said to people that you're not sure was meant as a good thing/bad!
I went skiing for the first time this year and had a great instructor, one of his favourite things to say to me however, was 'You have no fear', I thought that was a good thing, until he introduced me to another instructor and said 'This one is Kamikazee'.....Not sure him thinking I was on a suicide mission on the slopes was a particularly good thing! :lol:

Has anyone else been told something by ski instructors that reading between the lines probably isnt the compliment it sounds like??!!!!

Oh well, he should understand, he used to ski too!!!! :wink:

:oops: Was referring to the seagull comments rather than your skiing! :!:

You squawk a lot and steal old lady's sandwiches :?:
:twisted:

I like the sea, I am sleek and stylish, and I make noise when its necessary to, yes. I havent stolen your lunch, have I? :wink:

Ooooooh!!!! Harsh! :lol: I think you have a bit more to worry about than the phase of your addiction to skiing if you make comments like that a lot in the 'real world'!! Like whether or not your legs remain intact before the ski season! ) :lol:

Perhaps one day all these skiers that "meet" in this site can plan a ski holiday in a ski resort that is "nearly" closed! Then Mike,Tony, Gordie, Jan, IceGhost, Caron-a, Ellitsine et al can finally meet and ski together!
I know I can convince some ski companies to provide some sample skis! I know I can convince some ski resort to just close one day later! I know I can get some hotels to provide some low low end of season rates!!!!

Its nice to still have dreams!

I must admit, I'm not the most active of users here on the site. I tend to read more than post, lurking as some call it. I am always here to learn, as skiing is what I spend all my year looking forward to, and I'm striving to improve. Having seen all the passion for skiing expressed on this site, a trip like you described sounds really quite incredible. If I'm welcome, count me in!

Totally agree!! How amazing would that be?!!!! :D

Sorry to break it to you Pavel......Geordie refers to where I'm from, and is not unfortunately my name......which is actually a girls name..... :lol:

But on everything else you are spot on.....I have already bought some videos... :oops: and am hunting down ways to try skiing on plastic!!!!

So yes, I think its time I stood up and said....

'My names Jacqui and I'm a skiaholic....'
