Ok, so where's the best lift-served freeride terrain in Switzerland? I reckon in Italy it's Alagna and Gressoney and France probably Les Arcs or La Grave (for the brave). But what about en Suisse - I never skiied there yet - are Zermatt or Wengen any good?

Thanks, Steve

Simple question... had about eight weeks on mountains so far and happy on most slopes but have a problem when it gets a bit steep.

I try to do quick carved turns but just can't seem to get round quick enough before I'm accelerating at some crazy speed down the hill. I either explode after two turns or end up in a traverse at some mad speed (you should see the looks on peoples faces as I schuss the moguls... going across the slope!).

What am I doing wrong???

Thanks, Steve
