Fascinating article. Clicking the link above takes you to a page where the "headline" skiing essential is a snowboard! Um!! The main list has two snowboards before the first skis. A nice fun piece to give ideas on how to spend more money.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Interesting list Latchigo.
It seems "skiing" now is a group term for both skiing and boarding - item 1 is a Burton Board.
Item 2 is bound to go down well here
And Duct Tape down at 41? Surely should be in the Top 10.

I see Profeet get a mention for their boot-fitting services. Maybe CEM and SZK should bung a few freebies to the Ski Club big wigs...

The Independent "50 best" lists are almost always complete and utter cack. Usually look like they have been done on the basis of half an hour's work by a junior researcher using 5 or 6 web-based sources.

The Independant do a "50 best of" list every saturday.
It's a bit of fun and it breaks up the mediocraty of having to work on a saturday.

But it is absolutely pointless have a "50 essentials" that contains a number of the same type of products.
We only need one ski jacket, in general. One pair of ski boots. etc.
And except where there is something genuinely innovative about a specific product, they shouldn't be picking specific models/brands at all.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

My understanding was that skiing is the generic and boarding, alpine and cross country are the specifics.

I use the term 'going skiing' even when I now I'm porbably going snowboarding, probably because it is shorter and easier to say!
