Wow, now they are bling! I bet the shipping charge was more than the cost of my Fischers. :D

That ski (board) clock is ticking you lucky thing. Have checked on Lech and Zurs and cannot find a white week option as yet however, as Tony has indicated it is a snow sure destination and when it gets the snow it realy gets the snow! It is alleged that it is a good resort for taking your first stab at powder/off piste because they have areas on the map that are ski routes but not pisted. I will do a bit of research away from the tour operators and see if it can be done.

Enjoy Arraba it looks stunning from Lynn's recent report and a place we would like to visit in the near future. We also liked the look of Serre-Chevalier following Tony's report. Too many resorts and not enough time.

Anyway have a great/safe time and look forward to a report on your return. :D Is there any truth that you are considering hucking the Dolomites :wink:

Stunning pictures Lynn - Now on my must visit list! Nice input from the multi talented Dave Mac - We now know what he does when not skiing :wink:
Nice photos Tony, photo number six from the top looks like a vertical ski rink and may offer a challenge :roll:
has it been a good season or not?

Very good season - Two weeks of skiing in Austria and Italy - progressing well and looking forward to an even better three week season next year as I am just finishing decorating the house at the moment. The manager has no excuse now, so it looks like a cheeky week in March 2011 :wink: It was also nice to watch the winter olympics on our return for Italy. Helped with the post skiing blues!

:shock: Pablo and Tony are indeed the guru's of skiing - spot on K2 4speed, not the cheapest poles on the market but a big shock after one run. Its not as if I was hucking at the time! :wink:

Hi Ian, not best pleased as you can imagine. I did'nt think I skied that aggresive! The poles are made by a very big name in skiing world but they have a design problem for sure.
