I think it's great - I could listen to that stuff all day.

Great atmosphere and part of the scene although I'm sure they're are plenty of people who don't like it.
Anybody have any ski jokes?

Pavelski's stories raise a chuckle but does anybody know any that would encourage a good old belly-laugh? :mrgreen:

That is what Snow & Rock told me recently.
I haven't seen snow here (South coast of England) for getting on for ten years. :( - I make do with the lovely pictures on the internet.

I don't know what it was like before then as I lived in Scotland.
Where do i start?

Great replies from those above.

My tuppence worth: think back to the time when you didn't care - didn't care about falling over, didn't care about what strangers thought, didn't care about acting your age.

We've all been there and we've all been where you are now.

In my experience, the people who just get on with the game are the ones that make the best progress.
31" with a pair of boots underneath aren't too long. I, too, need a shorter length but find this size OK.

I just roll them up until I get my boots on.
Baggage Allowance when taking skis

Not skis but boots: I have just been on the blower to Bournemouth airport (flying with Austrian Airlines) and they say that I can take the boot bag on board as hand luggage but it must be below 5 kgs, otherwise it must go in the hold as part of my main luggage allowance.

The boots tip the scales at 4.7 kgs!
