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 :-)

New FIS training center opens in Italy in November

FIS training facility Sella Nevea Italy
A new alpine FIS training center is to open in Sella Nevea, Italy. The course, has been designed to be particularly suitable for speed discipline training and can be used by all international ski organizations....
Plans have been around for 3 yrs to create a non-commercial center for training in Downhill and Super G. Nations like Germany and the UK, though enthusiastic to compete in these fields, have had very limited access to the resources required to train properly. Now they can train ski racers in the Sella Nevea for an all-inclusive price of 85 euro per day.

The course is served by an adjacent lift and has snowmaking facilities along the complete length of the run.
The centre includes safety installations, Videoanalasis Tools, a Fitness facility and timing equipment. The FIS wants to provide better training conditions for many nations whilst promoting the charms of the Sella Nevea region.
The facilty was financed by the local regional government.

snowHeads race camp anyone? Wink

None yet...but I am keen to get race training (probably GS) next season.
It is something I enjoy doing and I do find that it greatly helps my overall technique.

Have credit card and a set of bindings.

It isn't difficult to arrange training space for SL and GS, smaller resorts often don't charge while a lane in Meribel was 160 euro per day last season.

Speed training needs a lot more room though as well as all the safety netting which is why this centre will be helpful.

Somewhat related to the news that the Italian Ski Federation (FISI) seems to have serious financial problem. They do not know how to handle their several million euros debt.
They badly need every euros to stay alive ...
