boredsurfin, Well, I was there today and you clearly failed  . I'll be back friday afternoon and it's double or quits.
Thought the show was much better than any in the past decade. Big crowd for the opening wednesday and that gave it a good atmosphere - the stands seemed busy. Obviously I had to slum it with the freebie champagne which made it a bit of a shock to later buy 3 bottles of Carlsberg for £10.95. Strewth. Verdict: better to go than not go.

They interviewed Warren Smith at the ski show on the local news this evening. He came over very well I thought

Hi to all who came to our Morzine Independent Holidays stand to see us. Sorry I missed most people as I was leaflet distribution monitor and did not spend much time actually on the stand. Hope the Vin Chaud was acceptable. Have a great season one and all.

We were the first through the doors when the show opened yesterday on the final day.
This year had all the usual suspects but seemed extra buzzy and quite exciting, the ski demos with James Machin and Woods (and others) were brilliant. The host was quite entertaining, throwing freebies into the crowds and making up amusing and (hopefully) made up facts about the skiers and boarders.
We had a thoroughly great family day out, big credit def goes to Mark Warner for putting on the free creche which our boys loved and enabling us both to enjoy the avalanche talk from Henry, we kept missing the talks last year so this was good
We got the boys name down for a dry slope lesson after lunch which they later enjoyed togther with the easy jet ice skating which was excellent too !!! There was lots of other things, too many to mention that kept us all amused.
I missed the cheese filled Austrian sausage which I'd skipped breakfast to accomodate but I did'nt see them there this year, shame but in its place a very authentic Tartiflette with a big salad did the job perfectly. 
I will go again next year.

I went on Friday for the first time, with Mr M and kids. Also first through the door as we'd got free tickets from Daily Mail Ski Mag. Highlights were:
Fashion show - amazing dancers and grabbed a free Schoffel hat
DJing workshop in the Gigloo - boys loved it
Vin Chaud - Yummy but expensive
Trespass stand - managed to negotiate 50% discount on this seasons gear
Photo stand - Free pics of family in 80's attire
Ice Sculpting - simply stunning
Massages - to die for!!
Rail Jam - awesome
Podiartrist consultations - free and excellent advice
All in all - we also had a great family day out. Didn't want to leave! Great to have a taste of winter at the start of the season. Roll on 2nd December (Boot Camp)

We went on Sunday and I was suprised how entertaining it was. Not too busy so the kids got to do everything except the skiing lesson, but that wouldnt have been great anyway as they are better than a 20ft snowflex slope  . Also they got in free so 25 for a family day out is pretty good.
I was amazed by the number of people buying boots though at S&R and EB, the staff were rushed off their feed with about 20 bootfitters active at each stand, dont think you could have had that personal a service!

This years show is October 22 to 26th at Olympia. (Neatly timed for the show to be the week before Half term  )
I see some discount tickets are around but does anyone have any of those nice free tickets for this years show?

Surely it's not that time of year again already....where did the last year go?  Does the magazine have free tickets? Sounds like a fun day out.

Are we going to have a snowheads gathering at the show in London this year? I was thinking of the Saturday if any one is interested.
