I am not anti helmets but I have never ever been one to jump on the band wagon, it all started with Natasha Richardson's unfortunate death in Tremblant ... Big publicity followed after that, it is just a shame I did not have shares in a helmet company ..... Never worn one since I started skiing and don't feel the need to change that. Personnel Choice 8)

Stick us on the list Ally Obertauern on the 25/03/14 ......

As the rest have said ski school a must and that will continue for a few years to come ..... enjoy you will have a ball :D

For me Freedom of choice ..... I have never jumped on the band wagon of wearing one and never will .... I suppose I'm brain dead anyway -)

Rightly or wrongly they understand the French stance on this subject, if they ignore France's stance then they have to accept the consequences ......

I enjoyed most of the events including bobsled & skeleton ..... even Curling in very small doses.
But slopeside I compare it to ice skating ... they seem to tale a huge lead up to a jump........
