ohhhh kaaay
I have the grace and style of a box of spanners falling down a mountain side (of course in my mind I am Franz Klammer) so since this is only my second week I am just looking to hire some skiis and there was some site called Slope Fox which does some cracking deals but I dont know them and was hoping someone would - they are based in Malta which last time I looked was not exactly famed for its skiing
The Doc I guess would make me some skiis but I am not at that stage yet - I am hoping to get a lot more comfortable this year and then go from there
Hors Piste is saying thanks and showing 'props' as the yout say to the site I guess?
Ta for the quick replies
Rick

Rick_W, He was Cham based so will know the answer to your questions, also he may have some White Dot demo's available there. Maybe not.
Good luck

Hi Rick_W,
Did you find anything more on Slope Fox?
Their prices look good, they have a UK phone number, therefore also thinking whether to try them.
Thanks,
Llew

Rick_W, not heard of slope fox but their prices look good. Here is a list of hire shops, most do a 20-25% discount for advanced/Internet bookings.
I have only used Sanglard.

jbob, +1 for Sanglard in Cham.
Book with them online in advance using skimium and you'll get a decent discount too. They've got great gear - always this season's models and are happy for you to swap skis as and when you want according to conditions or preferences. I'm always so disappointed when I go to other resorts and don't get the same service I (or anyone) gets at Sanglard year-in year-out.

Hi all we used slope fox on line for ski and boot hire in Latania France and it couldn't have been easier . We shopped around and they were by far the best price and very helpful.

Rick_W, where are you staying, much easier if you rent near your accom. Slope fox seems like a fine idea.
