Plus, slimline jackets are not necessarily the roomiest of clothing, and whilst I've enough give in mine to ski comfortably, I don't fancy cramming stuff into pockets.


I am totally in agreement with Jocrad :)

The 2 main reasons I have one is so I can have a water bladder and also to put goggles in. Unlike you Mr W, I do in fact fall over, and I am sure to land on my goggles and squish them.

Hi

I am off there that same week. Book your lift passes online on the VT website. Ski gear, I have always reserved online before we go, then just turn up give voucher and off you go. I use intersport as their price was the best. There are loads of others in vt, all with shops all over the town.

Ski school. I have used ESF in the past and have been good. Make sure you get one with good English speaking!! Not pigeon English!

Have great time!!
