I've used Swiss Ski & Snowboard School a couple of times, group & private. No problems, good instruction, would recommend them. Also used Buri Sports out of Grindelwald. Not sure that they cover Wengen though.

I thought the same 2 years ago. Had a fall, banged my head no major damage done. Last year, having had previous small accident bought a lid. Went and had a bad fall, landed head first and bust 3 ribs. If I hadn't had the lid it would have been broken head / neck aswell.

Always the round one.

The village had snow in the streets today. Tino_11 is currently headed for Zermatt next door, so no doubt he will be giving us an update on current conditions, while he slides around on his tea tray )

What no Bode?? He's only just been invited back to the team.

No, Mr Silly. Moto GP. Oh, and there's skiing from Solden on Eurosport 1.
