In general I would say buy, main issue is your skiing will evolve over that period. Ideally everyone needs at least 2 pairs of skiis.
1) piste skiis, something like Atomic or Salomon slalom ski. These will make piste skiing a lot of fun and bring on your carving. 2) something nice and versatile 98-105mm under foot with touring binding. Am sure by end of season you will be sick of pistes or just to side of them. Then you can have a great season but also means that renting starts to make a lot of sense unless you are feeling flush with money. Maybe can rent option 1 for month or so and then buy 2 later in season, when weather improves for touring. |

31 weeks until skiing, lesson learnt avoid ski related injuries. Will be exactly 48 weeks since incident.
:-). Sorry to say I hope is a late snow one unlike 2011-2012 season. |

My advice, avoid Banff/Lake Louise at this time of year. Fun town, decent skiing but far too cold to be really appreciated at that time of year.

Believe current advice on Go-Pro is same as mobile phones. If your off piste, needs to be mounted away from transiever i.e. on helmet.

Well easy transfers include Chamonix, Engelberg, Cervinia. All great skiing, I even gave you 3 countries to choose from.

Well if you willing to drive for skiing should be a magical place for Christmas. Plenty of high resorts within driving distance so as long as expectation is correct then can be fantastic holiday. Great choice if few non skiers in group.

Please clarify "mid week". If you only have few days then transfer time will dominate choice.
