Thanks Skiracer, maybe I'll see this season out & then invest.

Thanks Andy. Well I would say I have improved a lot over the last 5 years, moving from mainly blues to mostly anything 'on' pistes. Although as mentioned, mine are comfortable.

Interesting, so if one pair is £100 & the others are £350 but both fit well then there is no difference in the tech? I honestly don't know myself, hence my post. To be truthful I guess I don't need new ones, however may have been tempted if there was a chance it may improve certain aspects of my technique.

Just a quick question. Do you guys think more expensive Ski Boots help you improve/progress as a skier?. The reason I ask is I have had my boots for about 5 seasons, probably spent 60/70 days skiing in them. They are mid range (£180) but still comfortable. I am able to ski most piste runs & was debating to invest in some new boots, is it worth the extra outlay? Thanks for any responses.

Hotels or Chalets in Ischgl or Solden

Hi Dave
Going March 13 to 18.
I did look at the attached link previously, none were ideal. The main problem is none of us have any knowledge of the 2 resorts, hence my posting. Ideally we want one Chalet, but as per previous years, we struggle with getting one in Austria. Also its important we are near the town(s) center. Cheers

Due to Ryan Air scrapping early midweek flights to Salzburg we are now looking at either Ischgl or Solden rather than our first choice of Obertauern. My question is does anyone know of any reasonably priced hotel/chalets that are in the centre of either town. For the record there are 8 guys & our budget is about 85 euros pppn, self catering. Many thanks in advance. Matt
Nope, just about capable, many thanks for your concern, having dependents & not being selfish I decided this year it is not worth the risk
I'm going to Chamonix on Tuesday, skied V.B last year but won't be attempting this, even with a guide for me its too iffy?
