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 :-)

what's the biggest you'd drop?

Since it's (still) very quiet at work, i've been able to sit and browse youtube skiing videos, where i stumbled across a guy called hugo harisson. Now, he may be famous, but i'd never heard of him. I like his style. Although he does big drops, they seem more about skiing than just throwing yourself off a cliff with skis on. It got me thinking about how far i'd be prepared to drop with skis on. I'd say max about 20ft into a big bowl of powder.

How far would you go?

I once jumped 1m off os chair lift in Zurs that had stopped due to a power cut in the region. Does that count? Puzzled

Don't know what the biggest drop I've done would be, it's lost in my teenage years I suspect, but I (inadvertently, it was snowing heavily at the time) dropped off the roof of a small hut last year. Would've been about 8 feet I guess. That seemed fairly big when my knees unexpectedly whacked me in the chin. wink Managed to recover and ski on though, quite proud of that one actually. Cool

I would say 20 feet looks like a lot more when you're at the top looking down ! I've seal launched a kayak from about 15 ft and found it quite adrenalin (amongst other things) inducing. Confused

brian, i've kayaked a lot and know what you mean about 15ft seeming big. Still managed to through myself down a 70ft waterfall in the alps though and regularly about 35ft here.

biggest i've done on skis is about 10ft, but i think if the snow at the bottom was nice and soft and fluffy i would do more.

falling does count thefatcontroller, a drop is a drop!

some folk will find this boring but there's a recession on and i have nothing to do but talk about snow on here, or play poker on facebook!

Right now? 5ft.. I wouldn't just huck myself off a cliff hoping all goes well.. I'd need to be confident in that I can land the drop without kneeing myself in the face.

That depends on the landing. 20' onto a nicely-inclined slope is a lot better than 4' onto a cat track for example

Depends on the run out... but since I have crushed two discs on silly jumps and I didn't land either, I'd probably not much be interested anymore.
