Awesome footage once you get past the waffle and to the actual action...

:thumbup:

I have to admit that the skikey racks have been at all the Canadian resorts I've visited and my friends out there were really surprised I didn't have a lock already. I have to admit that they are really easy and quick to use and at least you then don't have to worry about your skis.

Think I will struggle next time I ski in Europe..... :shock:

Welcome to J2ski Snowbrdr13

Are you sure that Passo Stelvio will be open when you arrive in Italy? I only ask as the Stlvio pass doesn't usually open till end of May early June - and you need the pass to access the resort.

As for cheap accommodation, you mention the word backpacking so I am assuming you ar looking to stay in a hostel. Have you looked in and around Bormio? If you find a hostel locally you will probably find that they will arrange transfers, ski hire etc or will point you in the right direction!!

Does anyone know anything about or bought from: http://www.whitemountainonline.co.uk/

I only ask as I am looking at the Head Great One. My current ski is a Head Pure Love and like its name I love it and given the discount price on this ski I am seriously tempted.....

I can now see why this shook you up Bandit. That is one serious piece of rock and damage to the helmet! Not helped by the fact that it looks great conditions and little around to cause you an injury other than your own bad skiing - but then thats all it takes...

It is definitely another valid reason to make me think I should stop being lazy and get a helmet!

Now that made me laugh out loud (not a good thing when i'm still in work and work in an open plan office!)!

Thats crazy but what an awesome backdrop!

I'm gutted the boots are too big so i can't bag myself a bargain on this occasion! :cry:
