Pablo,
I think I fall over so much because I am always pushing myself to try the next difficult thing.

Happy now :?:

Ally, I fall over all the time, well not all the time, but usually one big fall every day or two. Saying that my 4 days in Zermatt in Oct I did not fall once and I was really beefing it around, but when I got on my new set up (board and bindings) at the Tux 2 weeks ago I wore the arse out of my ski pants I was on my backside so much :oops:

My new board is shorter, skinnier and has less of a sidecut. It was also proffesionally tuned prior to shipping and I have never felt an edge so sharp on skis or a board, I swear she was trying to kill me on day one. After we got to know each other a little better she started behaving...cheeky minx.

Anyway I agree, falling is important, need to push the limits :)

What date is Easter?
I am taking my tent.

I never thought Tino was 'that way inclined' or he'd have called his board 'Tom' instead of 'Tara' :lol:

Tino,
How inconsiderate of your friends to go away on their own holidays, just when you really needed them :D

Ally


Precisely, they should cancel.
Well then you will fit in nicely )

Bansko 6 day lift pass (independent) = £128

Bansko 6 day lift pass (through Crystal TO) = £94

Bansko Package (through Crystal TO) = £119 This inlcudes skis/boots/poles, lift pass and lessons for 6 days.

(This is snowb4ndit on Scapulas computer) :lol:


You know you can log in from another computer with your own user name??

Just checking )

I found a new use for my board in Saas Fee in August.

Dig 2 (8" deep) holes about 22" apart, turn your board over and place bindings in aforementioned holes and et voila mobile sun lounger.

Jazz.
You're even starting to sound like a bloody German now....


The Germans would never use Imperial measurements Tony!!

I'm sorry for your loss - both romantic and financial :cry:.

Haven't you got a male friend who could go with you instead? Or won't they change the tickets etc.?

I'm surprised she split on you before the holiday - if it was me I'd have waited until afterwards :twisted:

Classic post Ally :)

Two of my routine skiing buddies have booked Zermatt the same week, the other is heading home to Ireland. The hotel will not do Single Supplement on the suites (understandably so I rekon).
