livetoski, Mine arrived in time for the Birthday Party the other day, so many thanks for whatever strings you pulled.
Anyone else, These make a GREAT gift for any skier. They are highly recommended

When I used to play rugby at uni on away trips we used to try and steal anything we could lay our hands on...best steal was an opposition scrum half this was a retaliatory steal as they had our hooker... we bought him drinks all night but him up and gave him his train fair home the next morning... don't think I could ever bring myself to pinch anything like a piste marker though?

They're not stolen, they're replicas. (Read from the start of the thread.) Would agree entirely about nicking real ones - they have a purpose!

These are absolutely AWESOME!
I'm going to order one for my brother's birthday. Just need to double check the layout/spelling for Combe de Saulire in Courchevel.
I'd love a La Face one, I'm kind of tempted to get it for myself....

Someone round here is coining it on sales of little roadsigns to mad cyclists.

I've never seen them before, have I been living in a cave?
Where else can you get them?!

livetoski, great idea.
We had the logos printed out onto large cards of 15 different ski resorts that all meant something to our daughter and her now husband and/or us for their wedding back in December. Hope the wedding went well!
northernsoulboy, I saw similar signs in a shop in Morzine just last week - I think they were somewhere around 12 euros.

Perhaps you should have used a narrower ski?

northernsoulboy, Boredsurfing, they're about 7€ or so I think. If you're that desperate then let me know which col and I'll post one.

I wouldn't say I was desperate but if it's no hassle I wouldn't mind seeing the Col du Tourmalet or maybe Mont Ventoux...?

northernsoulboy, hm, not sure they have those, what with them not being very local. I'll have a look next time I'm out.

Ordered!
The piste map says it's Combe Saulire (no 'de'), and it looks as though the Courchevel piste markers have just a big number and the piste name on them, so that's what I've ordered. I've tried to get it to look authentic!

Just took delivery of one of livetoski's markers - the first piste the OH ever skied down - and it looks absolutely superb. Great service - recommend wholeheartedly.

@livetoski, we have been talking for ages about having something like this for our chalet in Les Gets. I will pm you with some details and see what you could do.
