 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi there,
me and a friend are going boarding in La Plagne on saturday (was going to be Val d Isere but we got a phone call this morning telling us that they had overbooked the hotel. tossers). i would be greatful if any of you seasoned skiers/snowboarders knew of some comforts to take along. i was thinking along the lines of hip flasks, heat packs etc.
cheers & happy skiing[/size]

Didn't know about that, makes a bit more sense now. i'm sure they found out about that before this morning! although, as soon as i hit the slopes i'm sure i won't care!! cheers

lpshippen, welcome to Snowheads. Impact shorts and wrist guards are not exactly "not quite essentials..." but they can certainly aid your comfort. Heat packs are probably cheaper in resort. Ibuprofen - tablets and gel - are infinitely cheaper in the UK because you can only by medication in pharmacies in France. Take some duty free (if you are flying into Geneva it counts as outside EU, so you can get better bargains) and buy mixers in resort, if you are trying to save a bit of money. I'd rather be going to La Plagne than Val D'Isere, personally. Have fun.

Anybody see the boot dryer in the last Fall-line mag. I want to get me one of those but not quite essential.

Bones, they have given us similar accommodation in La Plagne 1800 which seems to be a quiet village just outside of main La Plagne. We're going to get the difference back. We wanted somewhere a bit more lively in the evenings but what can you do?! its not too far from main La Plagne so we'll just bus/taxi it.
