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 :-)

I notice they didn't show any of the landings of those jumps. They probably needed the damn things surgically removed. A bit of padding on the seat might help them shift a few.

I almost bet it was deliberate: padding has an unfortunate tendency to pack away from solid anatomy bits and into squishy anatomy bits, as people who ride gel-padded bike saddles without proper bike shorts eventually find out.

That looks good fun, something that you'd do instead of tobogganing - which is something I usually avoid as I think I'll get injured and miss out on my skiing Confused

IncogSkiSno, Looking at that gadget I should think a toboggan is probably safer!! I'm also amazed that none of them had a helmet on - they were certainly going at some fair speed.

It's a fancy Bolkl, pronnounced like Volkl. You get them in the Sud Tirol in the Dolomites and the best ones have real cow horns to hang onto and a furry seat. I saw a couple of guys going off piste on them and also into the halfpipe. They're made with a short bit of old ski and a couple of bits of wood. Raw genius, until you fall off and land on the horn, whereupon you become Kenneth Williams.

IncogSkiSno, I agree with you about tobogganing, it is THE most dangerous activity IMV. When, years ago, I worked in Verbier, there was a path between the side of the chalet where I lived, and a wood, and this path was a favourite toboggan slope for drunken English yoof. Unfortunately, they used regularly to veer off into the wood itself and then come and bleed copiously all over our chalet. rolling eyes It put me right off tobogganing.

fallliner, you speak the truth - the original version of this is just a sawn-off ski with a wooden T screwed to it. Late March in Adelboden they hold the skibock world championships, down a course you wouldn't want to ski, board or abseil down - a ridiculous steep twisty thing spiced up by the prospect of herds of nutters careering into the back of you at any given moment. Some riders are incredibly skilful, landing jumps, going super-fast but hurting themselves too. I tried a basic model and also a deluxe version - a fat-ski with a wicker armchair bolted to it which went nicely until I tried to take it off piste, where it went nicely too, for about a third of a second.
