 Poster: A snowHead
|
Going in Jan, fancy taking much needed refresher and want a British ski school for a private lesson or two. I seem to remember Alan Hole worked out of Tignes, does anybody know if he's still there. Any other recommendations gratefully recevied. Not keen on going to Val d'Isere as daughter will be having lessons in Tignes and not sure how far away I will be travelling.

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

As rob@rar has posted, Alan is still there, saw him out teaching a few times too. BASS have an operation there now too. I've had some tips from Stuart Bernard (ex Wycombe Summit, and new BASI 1) who's very good.

stevew, Just over the ski lift at Val D there are these guys http://www.topskival.com/
Eric Berton took Mrs Axs and I out for three days last Christmas (we skied mostly at Tignes) and he was one of the best instructors we've ever had.

Update, Just spent 3 hours with Alan Hole, (website http://www.ski-instruction-tignes.co.uk/). Had a fantastic time and really feel we improved. Snow conditions were not perfect but Alan had us carvng across the hardpack and really built our confidence. Can't recommend him highly enough. Said hi from easiski and Alan sends you his best.
A great guy, and an excellent instructor.

I would like to second Stewart Bernard (evolution2 and SkiFocus) - he was our Tignes snoworks instructor a few weeks back, and I can't recommend him highly enough - great fun too !

Alpine Logic, Two posts and you have promoted your services in both of them. It is conventional to welcome people to SnowHeads at their first post. Given that Axsman has already provided a link to your services, I suspect many will find pimping this fast out of the gate a bit OTT. Happy Christmas anyway!
