 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi,
I'm new to this website, so please forgive any breach in etiquette. I'm a single male skier, 25, and unfortunately have no-one to ski with this year. I haven't been in a few years, but I'm dying to get back on the pistes. Providing I haven't forgotten everything, I should be more than happy with reds and blacks, and would like to try some off piste too. Up for some apres ski as well, but I'm not a party animal.
I'm not fussed about country or resort, as long as it doesn't cost the earth, there's plenty of snow and runs, and it's not at a time when it will be rammed with kids.
If anyone has any recommendations, suggestions, or space on a trip, please let me know 
All my friends have either been, can't do more than a blue, or have injured themselves.
Cheers,
Will

Are you looking to go out for all of Feb and Mar or are you just flexible on just one week during that period? If you are only looking for a single week then some of the snowhead bashes are very reasonable and worth a look at here: http://snowheads.com/ski-forum/viewforum.php?f=31.

I am also in the same boat this year with a lack of ski buddy's! Was looking at the bash but struggling with Manchester flights. I am a single female tho so we would probably need more to make a group! Looking at 30th or 31st Jan. Vicky

@vickyb342, which bash? Post on the relevant bash thread with your requirements and we may be able to help. Plenty fly out from the north, though it does require some imaginative thinking at times.

If you want to avoid kids be aware that French school holidays are the last 3 weeks of February and the first week of March.

@Frisbee_skier, Hey all! Im also in the same boat this year! Im an intermediate skier not too fussy on the location but preferably a large resort. Im in my early 20s and again not too much of a party animal but always up for the odd apres ski. Happy to discuss - drop me a mail ravigill666@googlemail.com

The Birthday Bash fits the bill.
Not loads of space left but there is some some.
If your goal is to keep costs down, you need to get a move on as there's just one place remaining at the cheaper Belavista. If you're up for the extra comfort and convenience of the Portavescovo there's no so much of a rush as I've a few spaces left there.

@frisbee_skier, Hi Everyone! I'm considering going on a trip in February/March (or possibly both). I'm 25 and an intermediate/advanced skiier, which puts me miles ahead most of my friends 😑. My email address is craggs0151@hotmail, let me know if you fancy setting a trip up 😀

Hi Guys.
I have just got back from a trip over new year and after skiing on ice for a week I want to head back (now they've had proper snow) in Feb/March.
I'm 25 and ski pretty much anything, not very gracefully but I get down.
Want to give off-piste a bit more of a go next time, maybe with a lesson or two.
I live in London so a short weekend could also be on the cards quite easily.
My email is Phil-Brian@Live.co.uk, I reckon there are enough people here to organise a decent trip, drop me a mail.

@Craigj90, @vickyb342, @Frisbee_skier, @Philip.Brian, @Craigj90,
Wow, Snowhead for several years and fatefull 10BB....
I am also looking to team up with peeps for a 3rd week of snow this season...
I was looking early March Poss 2nd week, if the French schools are out on their hols before then - have to beat the Easter holidays as that is also early this year...
I'm pretty open to anything, so long as it doesn't involve drinking until 3am then skiing - I'm reasonable red skier with the odd black thrown in.. Fancy playing off-piste but would prefer lessons...
Happy to pile on the miles, not keen on repeating the same runs every day !!
Would like to try Italy again and even reach the Sella Rhonda this time !! Happy with any suggestions for a laugh...
I know of a great place in Switzerland PDS...
So perhaps a small Bash of our own is on the cards ??.

@noisey, @Philip.Brian, @Craigj90, @vickyb342, @ravgill100,
I'm up for that, sounds like fun. Also keen on the miles, but I do want to play (and because I'm crazy, I want to try freestyle skis  ). Not after the snow parks though. If enough of you are up for this, maybe we could look at a small chalet or something? I've skied Italy and the Sella Rhonda before, and enjoyed it a lot. I'm not fussed with resort as long as there's a good variety of runs, plenty of powder, and a nice bar or two for some drinks in the evening.

Silly Question. Is the "bashes" are mainly aimed as skiers ? what about us borders

I would love a boarder only bash, maybe next year lol. We do play nicely with skiers/boarders though so the bashes seem to be for anyone. I think there are more skiers on here than boarders though hence why the bashes seem mainly for skiers.

@KernowRed,
Who do we need to ask for a boarder bash ?

Hi, I'm new to this website. My mate got injured while skiing this year and he can't go with me to Brides-les-Bains in French Alps on 20th Feb for a week. Brides-les-Bains it's just accommodation place as the main destination is Meribel-three valleys (one of best resorts I've been skiing in and also one of the biggest ski areas in the world!!). I'm 40yrs old, not a party animal however après-ski celebration at the bar is the must after a full days on slopes. I'm quite experienced so would be nice to ski with someone on similar level. I'm taking a coach from Victoria station on 20th Feb. The package deal is from www.skiweekends.com. If anyone wants to join drop me an email: leokazm@yahoo.com Cheers-Mariusz
