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 :-)

Am i a border? I have ski's, boots, sticks and everything ski related. But after three days boarding in courcheval last year i now find myself looking at boards in ellis brigham, and those all in one yellow ski suits don't seem half as appealing any more. I am even contemplating leaving my skis at home when i go to mayerhofen at new year.

Please help im having an identity crisis have i gone too far am i now a dark sider?

You most certainly are AD (A Darksider?).
Mayrhofen is a good boarder resort,great for learning & building confidence.
Great bar at the Base of the Penken,i'd avoid the Ahorn as it is (Was) 2x Drags & a long black to the bottom.
As for Ski suits.........there are still a few (Mainly French/German) who insist on wearing them,while Boarding,though discouraged it does supply endless laughs & a good target for Snowballs!

Cheers (Mr T), don't actually mind the drags but i will keep off the black run just yet. Athough i did seem to pick boarding up quite quickly, im in austria for 9 days so maybe on the last day the ahorn will be mine.



I am feeling darker by the day is any one out there who can stop this madness before the metamorphasis is complete?

Just bought my first pair of boots yesterday - some nice red Burton Sapphire's and a new attitude at the same time!!!!
My trousers are gonna be baggy and I've loaded some radical tunes onto my ipod!!!!

Anyone who uses Gloucester dry ski slope can have a laugh at me over the next few weeks as I try and get some technique before hitting the snow slopes!!!!

p.s. has found 2 kinds of protection - the full shorts or this kind of thing....
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7124856870&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT
looks intriguing and possibly less bulky than shorts - any opinions if someones used this sort of padding?

mountain mad, camping mat is a lot cheaper!!! It'll be just as bulky as short are you'll need to wear somthing to keep it in place, infact how does it stay in place, at least the shorts would keep it all together?

Not sure what the need from all this impact protection is needed for, if you really do fall properly it aint really going to help.

i guess i've forgotten about falling all the time when starting out.............now the fall on the coxyccx - yes that does hurt! I had used to use camping mat for that when starting out but don't use it anymore, i'd go with the camping mat & a bit of duct tape to hold it in palace Wink NehNeh

Back from mayerhofen im now officially a snowboarder!!!! I had my skis with me used them on the second day and then repacked them ready for the trip home. I spent the next 5 days trying to get to grips with the board, on about the third of the five days my balance angles and weight distribution just seemed to come together meaning i spent the last two days on reds looking for small jumps. I cant wait for the next trip to see what stage i get to. It took me about three weeks on skis to get to a comfortable ability (being able to do reds safely) it took three days on a board. Although it must be said getting off steep banked chair lifts is a nightmare and don't even mention drags. Just a word on mayerhofen though and that word is QUE'S.
