there was this thread last march which inspired me to spring ski and I certainly had a good experience in Schladming (around 1900m) http://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/list/12400.page

I wonder if this might be of any use?

You ought maybe to consider skiing Austrian reds rather than French ones as these will invariably be steeper and more difficult from my experience.

that's reassuring as I have only skied in Austria and been led to believe that french reds are steeper than austrian which makes me a bit nervous, and I am off to france this year... oh wait... in 8 days :)

I've been working put on a BOSU (taught by an amazing personal trainer who is also a ski instructor) for a few weeks in prep for skiing. as well as strength/stamina building it helps hugely with balance and core (squats, lunges, single leg balancing). I can't vouch for what difference it will make on the slopes but it feels as if it will be beneficial. I live in hope :)

I have been awaiting that day for the last 2 seasons, maybe this will be the one!
