Contact the shop in advance and let them know what you are looking for.
Swiss Wall

I went to Morzine just after coming back form Jackson Hole, when I skied the wall I did wonder what all the fuss was about. It's fairly steep and had massive moguls but no more than other blacks I've done elsewhere.

One of my mates has one of those watches that measures heart rate and works out calories burned from that. The reading from that would suggest that the calorie count on the apps are wildly inaccurate.

Perfectly adequate to celebrate the start of the journey to the alps!

I'm quite comfortable about my choice of fizz. You don't have to pretentious to be manly do you?

I ran 3 tracking apps while skiing in 3V, Alpine Replay, Ski Tracks and the Meribel app. I found Alpine Replay a bit flakey, despite says it had uploaded successfully only one of my 8 days appeared on the website.
Ski Tracks was so much better, worth the nominal cost.
Meribel adding tracking to their app is a nice touch, though fairly limited.




The 3 Valleys app was great, being able to see where you are on the piste map is good, plus you can pull up restaurant info, lift times etc

Both Ski Tracks and Alpine Replay have had an update launched this week. I'm not sure what the changes are, but will have another play in Mayrhofen.
Sunglasses V's Goggles

It has to be snowing hard before I reach for my goggles. I've got some glasses with interchangeable lenses, which cover virtually all conditions.
They were quite cheap, but the yellow lenses are fabulous in low light.
