Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Hello and some questions from a newbie

I just took a look at the bash thread but, unfortunately, I don't think the dates will work for me. Sad

Maybe next time. Smile

FWIW. I agree with Pam....imo. Your best progress will come from signing up to a really good ski school in the resort...so a bit of research (and getting personal recommendations on here) will give the best results. There are some great British ski schools in the Alps.

If having lessons in the UK...I'd go to a "Fridge".

Only worth it if a fridge is near enough and quiet enough. Dry slope is a great technical basis for a long and happy ski or snowboard life because it doesn't allow you to be sloppy. Plus in terms of bang per buck a series of group lessons on a local dry slope is the best skiing investment you can make.

I've seen too many people put off skiing by a Dry slope...including getting a nasty injury.....so I'm always hesitant giving it a full recommendation. I'd rather put the money towards a good resort ski school, or an extra private lesson when there. I appreciate other opinions vary.

But the op has already been and knows that they really enjoy it Puzzled I don't see the point in discouraging someone that already enjoys the dryslope...other than to tell them that the real thing is way more fun Very Happy

Good point, well put.

Somehow I'd forgotten that....but the injury risk is still there (he says in order to save a little face) Embarassed

No, I've only got four weeks skiing, Pre Season Bash, Christmas in Livigno, Pre BB and the BB. The OH insists we have a summer holiday so that's my annual leave accounted for. Sad snowHead
