Fir the last 2 years we have been going to Meribel. There are 5 kids in the part all between the ages of 5 & 9. We use one if 2 ski schools, parallel lines or magic in motion. These are both UK based & only have British instructors, we thought this was best for young children. Also the max in a class is 6 pupils with one instructor & one helper. They start at 9.15 & finish at 1.15, so you get 4 hours to yourself, meet for lunch & then ski with them in the afternoon. What is also great is there is about 8 lifts out of the Chaudaune (excuse spelling), meeting area so you simply don't queue to get up the mountain. If you have any specific questions please feel free to ask. |

I agree on the T Bars, think their problem is the lack of available revenue to put in another chair. The 6 man chair is a new addition, 2 years old I think, this cost over 10 mil euros, which considering it only opens 1 run of any note is a bit of a joke.

Andy, how did you find Kreishberg. I have been there a few times as a mate has a chalet there, don't often come across people who have heard of it let alone skied there. IMO i think its a great place, especially with Turracher Hohe fairly close.

Depends on how serious or bad the break is. I broke my Navicular bone in my foot on the 4th Jan & skied without a problem last week. I think you may suffer some discomfort but a Ski boot is a good support, actually offers more support than a cast.

Chrispyapplepie is dead right. I use WhatsApp for mms messages & Viber for calls when I am away as both are free, although these have to be in a wifi zone. Also, once in a wifi zone, emails are the way forward for any pictures or videos.

The Ski Helmet Debate

In my opinion it is totally up to the individual. However I think it should be compulsory for children. In fact if it was not for a helmet my 6 year old may well have died last week. Its a brilliant but potentially dangerous sport so I struggle to see why people wouldn't want to wear one.
