Security of boot bags
Started by User in Ski Hardware, 43 Replies
I put boots on the suitcases along with helmet and build the clothing in and around them. OH takes a boot bag with her in the suitcase and then carries her boots to the lockers if there are any.
Re the convo on the amount of clothing..... It's personal preference and also experience of what you do and do not use over time. I also have merino wool stuff, swear by it! But I know people who where t shirt one night when out then wear during the day the next, before new clean top the next night and so on.
Having paid for a board / ski bag we do have a little more space for clothing etc. I have a set of travel scales too to ensure the weight split is correct....
Me!! I'm in Arabba 1st Feb

Yep, I carry two of the cable type (two in case the GF n I are likely to separate for lessons etc - she can take one with her before Tony or Icy comment lol.

It won't stop the 'professional thieves but hopefully stops the muppets...
January trip in jeopardy

I agree with Admin, check with your insurers as may / should be able to cancel the pair of you and claim (less excess).
The other 6 however will very unlikely be able to claim though....
If CAN claim, I'd go later in the season.
Ps not great though if you do have to cancel, but at least you should still get some piste in during the season.

I am looking to buy a car in January and am having trouble deciding what to get. I thought "who better to ask, than my J2 friends who know everything about everything...." :roll:




Vauxhall insignia - relatively cheap to buy, masses of space in them, good size tank / range.
Ski tracks App

Sitting is wasting time Iceman, just point the board down the hill / off the cliff and vvvrrrrroooommmm lol :lol:

Joking aside...

We like the app as it does give a record of where you've been, runs done etc and the odd loss of GPS is a small matter. Most importantly of course it clearly shows I can boogie down the mountains :wink:
