Many thanks for all the advice.
Bought a pair of Metron 9 ppm 164 Quite pleased to buy them for £235 bag thrown in. |

Whilst in comparison to other resorts, runs maybe short if I recall longest at yllas 2.5k.
No waiting time at the lifts at all, uncrowded slopes. Before anyone asks I do not work for the Fin Tourist board, its really the most perfect place to ski, if you prefer perfect groomed slopes no rocks and are not a so called expert, mind we all think we are one of those at times when really no more than an INTER. |

In addition,
Whilst nothing in this life is FREE, you actually get to ski for 7 days your 6 day lift pass includes 1 free day. This is due to most of the flights not leaving Kittala till around 1900hrs and of course its only a 45 or 15 mins trans depending on which resort. |

Unless you are an absolute expert Yllas/Levi these 2 resorts will be challenging for most skiers.
Whilst quite obviously it gets very cold, because of very little wind -10 can actually be very pleasant. The last 2 seasons the wife/I have been to each resort, would recommend either to anyone. Tip! If i recall we booked about a month before for each resort. Inghams each year seem to have really good offers to the AKAS think we payed £350 HB, this year we stayed at the Crazy R for the same price booking with FC. Trips I think there was very little in it Rep/Yourself. Should you require anymore info then send me a PM. |

I intend to buy a pair of skis this weekend at the ski show.
Could anyone recommend a pair. I mainly ski on piste. Int-Adv but certainly no expert. Last season I hired a pair of A Metrons (9) quite short if I remember 162 I am 6ft but found these quite good. Many thanks should anyone reply. |

Yllas! you and your family will love it.
Went to Yllas March 07, Levi 08, whilst I have no experience of the ski schools I would not think there would be any problems. Lapland so underated and you have picked a good time of year not so cold, more day light hours etc. Good luck with the Northern Lights,hope you dont end up with to much of a stiff neck looking for them. |
