Trencher, that is a superb video, great find, thanks for sharing. Every turn is different and yet has all the same components.

I ski like that in my head :D
1st April Italy, worth it?

The usual places will be filled with people who had the same idea. There are lots of places in Europe for late skiing, you don't have to use a glacier or motorway style slopes which have been bashed to the consistency of concrete.

Check the historical snow depths for Livigno before booking )
There has been a rockfall on the road up to Val d'Isere and Tignes, just outside a Tunnel. Removal of the debris means some road closures.
If you are travelling to, or leaving resort on Saturday or Sunday to catch a flight, get in touch with your Tour Operator, timings may need to be revised.

Ski Fitness - 4 weeks to go post op

Lexiloo, I had the Mini version a while ago and skied 5 weeks later. I felt somewhat fragile though, imagine Bambi on skis. Not really like me :shock:
Surgeon OK'd it, said there was no reason not to ski. We are all different, so do what feels right, and don't beat yourself up if you need a deckchair break in the afternoon 8)

I would be very interested in seeing a policy with that amount of skiing cover. Do you happen to have a link to the online policy doc?
All I could find on the Endsleigh site was the FAQ's Page, where I found this:

26. Can I extend winter sports cover beyond 17 days on an annual multi trip policy?
If you have chosen an annual multi trip policy with the winter sports option your cover will include up
to a maximum of 17 days winter sports in total during each period of insurance. Unfortunately this
cannot be extended, so if you would like winter sports cover for a longer period please opt for a single trip
policy.

Do you have a different product?

Thanks Grizwald, I thought they were Mountain Guides! The company offer a service they call Guiding, which seems to be on pistes only.

Caron, Snowbandit and Scapula are resident in Morzine and will be the best for info both on and off the slopes :D

I have memories of gentle tree lined slopes. I think you will have a great time 8)
