Me and ski oppo Gordon are off there for a week at the end of Jan., and I would like some info on Ellmau. Staying a little out of town up a piste (Hotel Schonblick) so we'll be wobbling home up hill of an evening, I should guess....

BB - did you get out much today? Was blowing a gale in many places - LDA looked badly affected as far as I could tell.

Is there ANY advantage to hiring anything but economy skis?

The economy skis that I have had have been OK, but a bit battered. Most had reasonable edges that would have been useful, had I known how to use them. I'm with Markinkent on this one - I now tend to go for the intermediate skis - about the same level as my skiing, and less battered than some of the economy skis I've had. My understanding is that the economy skis are a few years old; the more you pay, the newer the ski, but also some of the advanced skis are a bit stiffer and need more skiing (if that makes sense)
