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 :-)

I've always used Ski School Alpin for both private and group lessons and they've always been excellent. www.sport-alpin.at

They have offices opposite the city express, by the areitbahn and schuttdorf and in Kaprun.

They have instructors suitable for all ability levels and every one I've met has been really nice, patient and an excellent instructor. Can recommend Wolfgang, Axelle, Tomas and Lewis...

christine051176,

Les Salmon is your man - if he's still there.

He works for the Ski School Zell am See from Sun-Thurs and for himself at weekends. He is based in Colorado and Zell is a project for him at present.

I've been skiing for 25 years on and off and learned more from Les in 6 hours in January than in all that time snowHead

Here's a link to his website

christine051176,
another vote for Les Salmon. I'v not skied with him but met him in "Win Win " (a bar in Zell) just before Christmas.
talked skiing all afternoon, while watching Wales play Australia at rugby. He gave me a copy of his book on skiing which all my family have read and found to be very good. a very nice guy.

Wow, it seems he has become a little well-known in Zell then! We had our first lessons with him last March when he had just arrived in Zell, and then met up with him a few times for drinks etc. in January this year. He'e been filming in Zell this season for his DVD to accompany the book.

Thank you for all your advice. I have contacted Michael at 'Outdo' so i will see how this pans out. Thank you to Byron Gates, for the contact; the website looks great, so lets see if the instruction does too???
Deliaskis, I would like the no. for Les if thats ok. If all else fails maybe I will give him a call.

Well I must give a BIG THANK YOU to Byron Gates, I booked a few Privates with ski school 'Outdo' . I was amazed the difference a GREAT ski instructor could make to my skiing. I have skiied since my early teens and have skiied on average 3/4 weeks per season since; I am 32 now, so you do the math. Michael from Outdo not only greatly improved my skiing but also gave me greater understanding of what I actually needed to do to improve. I can not praise him enough, and will be recommending him and his school to EVERYONE... There website is www.outdo.at check it out!
Thanks again to everyone for there advice. A great holiday was had by all. Very Happy
