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 :-)

Agenterre, Example: You are a local woman from Watrord, you love skiing so you join our ladies group on a wednesday morning. You get 2 hours plus a coffee and some coaching for £27.00, your a member so you get a further reduction of 30%. You cant travel back and forth to France every week can you. We are not trying to replace your holiday experience, its a domestic opportunity to participate in a social activity. I dont think this example is expensive when you consider what people pay for other leisure activities.

geetee, lots of kids stuff organised, check out www.thesnowcentre.com all detail will go live in a few days. We want to get kids participating in snowsports so have organised a full programme. I used to ski at Hemel when it was a dry slope as a child. Happy days!

andytb, In Austria they call it appfelmost and it very seasonal and regional. it is lke scrumpy and clears you out (if you know what I mean)! My family live in Kaernten where it is available during the autumn. Ask for it in Tirol and they give you a bit of a look! You can have beer, beer or beer, anything provided its beer. Hence spritzers for me!

£27 or £28 for a coached 2 hour session including slope pass & rental skis(assuming it does) seems not too bad to me.

I'm not aware of alpine ski schools that offer a drop-in session including lift pass at a similar price, could be a big seller on Saturday afternoons for early arrivals.

Spyderman, Have every intention, depends a bit on the snow. Its at full tilt, hence me still being up and drinking Jamies. I just got in after a full on session moving the stuff around. Running 24 / 7 to get a good depth, there is a 24 hour shift at the mo! You got high vis, hard hat and boots, get yourself in there!

You really are getting to know him quite well aren't you! As there's snow involved he might be tempted though. He might even take me to help as my mothers day treat rolling eyes

slikedges, Its a new off piste module to be added to the level 1 qualification, aimed at indoor off piste.

FlyingStantoni, We dont have snow cannons, this is the stuff we managed to shovel inside during the Feb snow fall in the UK. Got to save costs where you can!

gilleski, excellent thinking there. On a similar vien, perhaps you should get Radio 4 to do an appeal...
Quote:
Do you know that every year the lives of thousands of small children in the Hemel Hemstead area are blighted by a lack of skiing?

This lack of skiing can be deadly, leading to a love of chess - or even worse - badminton.

But you can help.

Are you travelling home from a ski vacation? Maybe in Europe. Maybe in North America.

By bringing home just one snowball from your vacation, you can give the gift of snow to the Snow Centre - a Hemel-based charity that is bringing the joy of skiing to the poor, impoverished masses of Hemel. The Snow Centre will store and build up this snow - so that it's big enough for the poor tykes of Hemel to ski on.

How good would that make you feel?

Just the selfless act of bringing back one small snowball, may help stop a child's life sliding out of control.

Please send your snowballs to Pete Silver-Gillespie, c/o Radio 4 Snow Centre Appeal.

Remember. It doesn't matter how big your balls are. Just that you send them to Pete.

One small snowball. It's all it takes to change a kid's life.

gilleski, Are their any plans for race-training for adults?

I know it's difficult to do most disciplines on a short indoor slope but just wondered if your instructors would be doing any technique classes on say a short slalom course?

Starting to look good, for what it's worth I think the prices (apart from the private lessons) are not unreasonable, in fact the coached sessions seem very reasonable, hopefully I'll get up there some time as it will just about be in range for me to think of as a day out
