How did your research go ? I'm looking to get out there to around 11 - 14th November.

Have the chnace the go to the rugby world cup in NZ next year which starts late September, wondered if there was a chance of getting out there for a week or two's skiing beforehand or would i be just a wee bit to late i the season ?

I did a one day Warren Smith course at Xscape Glasgow a couple of years ago, very heavy on technic but they were so bang on with all my faults (and correction thereoff!).... actually I'm probably due another session after 2 seasons of learning bad habits again.

Sore legs after are cumpulsory or you havn't been listening/trying/learning !

Saalbach-HinterGlemm or Zell am See both good for slope variety and apres.

Usually do an early pre-season trip to Kaprun and then catch another day there when I do a week in Zell am See later in the season. Both are great places and I couldn't imagaine a year when i didn't try and get there.

Only one I've stayed in there is Hotel Panther in Saalbach, very nice and I loved the oudoor pool at the end of the day (and the fact it was practically ski in) but probably to modern for you Dave.

Dolomites for New Year then annual Zell am See pilgrimage in late January. Going to try and ski Scotland at Feb. half term then probably somewheere in Austria in March with end of season in Val d'Isere.
