Mail for help.Help!!

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 :-)

Mine arrived!

ONE ski…the picking note said "quantity 1" guess what happened!!

Arghh…but they have credited back the full order value, which is nice as I had a few things on there and now I can't get the darned site to order me another pair…they show on stock but with no way of despatching them!

I now have ONE 206cm ski!!

adam.b, If all else fails contact the Decathlon UK facebook page, they seem to go out of the way to sort things out for customers (sorted me out when the kids road bike I wanted for Chloe was only in stock in Belfast)

Good stuff! Where are you planning having a play with them adam.b? Have you done any XC before? I'm hoping for some snow cover on the Highpeak Trail before too long to try and teach myself how to move on them. The weekend's project will be getting them waxed following through the Swix school method which seems simple enough (assuming the base wax I've got coming from Bartlets arrives in time) Oh and if you need any poles and 145 is your size you can have a pair of the ones I got of ebay for a fiver.

Not decided where…I am assuming you are fairly close to me (mansfield) so when it snows we can meet up and fall over together…I bought my lovely wife some too!

The poles sound great…I will swap coffee and cake for a pair!

PM me your number and we can snow watch…do you know a nice, safe, flatfish place where we will not be too observed?!?

Hi adam.b, Yep I'm just near Matlock, will PM you in a mo. The Highpeak trail is one of the old railway lines that has been turned into a footpath, within about a mile of where I am sat typing this there are 2 different flat stretches of a mile and a bit each which I think will be perfect if this rain ever turns to snow!
