Thanks for the feed back, I can see the lack of a snow skirt could be a problem, I tend to fall down a bit when off piste. :oops:

I think it will be worth it, so will give it a go with my Soft Shell. At least it will cool me down when I fall down, bit of snow down the back may improve my skiing......

Thanks :wink:

As it warms up, I have been looking for a light weight ski jacket, but I am thinking of just using my soft shell walking jacket with one or two layers below.

What does anyone else wear and have they tried a soft shell jacket?

Hi Just booked to go Val d'sere on 14th March. cannot wait .....

Back to the Ski count down, we are going back to St. Anton 11/1/15
Thanks for doing the list
Snowy

Done

Just got to we loved it. St Anton was wonderful, but we will be trying something new next year.

Keeping an eye on the forecasts :shock: , desperate for a last few runs, but if the snow is poor then sadly no :(
If the temps drop can you please shout long and loud :thumbup:

We have just returned from our first skiing holiday in St.Anton in Austria, we had a fantastic time, the snow was wonderful, the hotel was good, the ski hoisting from the hotel was excellent. The Apres ski, well you had to be there, Mrs S was dancing on tables and trying all sorts of new spirits. :mrgreen: We also had a day of guided off piste skiing, which was safe and secure and took us into some wonderful powder.
The general cost of meals, drinks, and equipment, etc seemed a cheaper than France :?: so we didn't spend too much. :oops:

The only surprise,was the quality of some of the lifts, small two man which nearly knocked you into next week when you got on them :shock: , and there were the "T" bars. Other lifts had heated seats and pull down covers but quite a few really needed upgrading.

Will we go back oh yes, but what part of Austria that is the question.
