not sure about snowboarding but he said the skiing wasnt too challenging so you should be fine

the TI is stiffer which will mean it wont turn as easily but wont flap about as much at speed-if you suffer from this flapping a lot at speed it is probably because you dont have enough forward pressure in the boot-best thing i learnt last year in ski school!

On the other hand, it is very cheap.

If you're looking to buy now, I would certainly have a look over here: http://www.regattaoutlet.co.uk/. Definitely a step or two up from the D2B stuff, and at similar (sometimes better!) prices.


i have a base layer from regatta and it is not good at all-similar to what you said about dare2be, really not breathable at all. suppose ian is right, just buy as good as you can afford

have got the softshell hoody and it is very warm and decent quality for the price, well worth a gamble
