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 :-)

Sports student paralysed after sledging collision

It is an all to common accident which is why I think it is worth mentioning.
A 19 year old student is paralyzed in her legs following back injuries sustained while luging at the ski resort of Les Gets on the Bruyère piste on Sunday. The accident ocured around 11pm. A dozen French sports students removed padding from a snow canon on the piste to use as makeshift sleds. There was a collision in the same spot between a sledger and a piste basher in March 2012 and sledging on ski runs, either open or closed, is banned. It is not known if the victim will recover.

Yes, these late night sledding accidents (often involving alcohol and promoted events) are just terrible.
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

, well worth mentioning.
Doubly irresponsible.
Those "padding sledges" are unstearable and soon pick up some terrifying speed, by which time they are unstoppable.
And of course, then leaves a hard metal object without padding for some poor sod to collide with.
Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

ah..memories of more irresponsible times. Remember going on a black ops sledging mission in Morzine where we hid in the trees from piste bashers. Lead miscreant even got big air off some booter just above town. Could easily have ended badly...there bit for the grace etc....
