Poster: A snowHead
|
I've attended the SnowHeads off piste bash for the last three years, out of the thirty or so who are there, there have never been any more than four of us boarders. I was wondering why there haven't been more boarders and if anyone else is interested in coming along? It is an excellent week for those who enjoy fresh tracks in knee deep powder. What's not to like?

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

I would be very interested in future years. I normally snowboard with my girlfriend and another couple. The girls both ski and aren't quite up to off piste level yet and so it becomes difficult justifying spending more than a couple of days without them.
I did a "half-time" off piste week in Serre Chevalier last winter with the UCPA and that worked out perfect, big money though this year....

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I'm another one looking at this for the future, once I bootstrap my level up a bit!
For the moment I'm sticking to the odd venture "side-piste", though an snowheads bash off-piste day may be the next step on the ladder.

@robin_mxx, if you're back on the EoSB this year, maybe go out on one of the guided off-piste days and get a taste?

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I'll be at the pre Birthday Bash with another snowboarder looking to do at least one off-piste day

When you factor in that the boarders need to be good enough to go into the guided groups, that means they are only eligible for around half the spaces. Even at full capacity, that's 4/18 or more than 20%, which is a higher proportion than on most bashes.
