Another throbbing feeling in the wallet!

Out of date ski. You'll be making it 25% harder for her to ski than it needs to be. Do her a big favour and find something with tip rocker/early rise

Can someone explain what these skis are (tip rocker or early rise) and why they help? Thanks.

Tignes

I'm all packed too!
Now really excited. One sleep to go.

Which piste is te first pic of?

Unfortunately the pound is almost completely tied to the euro due to the uks total reliance on exporting to the euro zone. So very unlikely a big gap will open up. The pound will go down with the euro.

13 sleeps until Tignes.
Started getting stuff out and ready today!

I've heard good reports and have met the guys and gals who run Bonjour Bonjour; good people and I'm sure they'll look after you well.

When the snow's good, the Black (whose name escapes me for the moment) back to the village is one of the best in the area and the sort of run you want to go back and do again... when you've got your breath back. 8)

I think the black is Sache

For info I am generally skiing with a group who are better skiers than me so I try to keep up when my technique isn't really up to it. I improved well with them last year. But it still takes me more effort to keep up.
