Hmm members area still has the original page. Guess its under construction for a new layout?
The rest, like course info etc, is so much easier to use now!

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

david@mediacopy, do you consider them to be expensive? The big cost ends up being travel/accommodation and ski passes. I will be getting a season pass for verbier this season, I am spending over 4 weeks there for exams! Then you have the likes of race coach 2 in Hintertux, that one I am dreading the bills for, very pricey ski pass accommodation is not cheap and its over 600km from where I am based during the winter! I dont really like thinking about my L3 too much...

R555MAC, They seem to have gone up a bit since the last time I looked. I'm toying with knocking some more of my L3 and as you say the cumulative costs are significant.

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

The exams are by no means cheap, the cost of every L3 exam (incl 2nd discipline, buying books and a language test) exceeds £2900 before transport kit etc etc
I have a list made up so that I can track what I have booked/passed and require accommodation/kit for without using the net at all. I have the total cost written down, hence coming up with the above figure. Im looking forward to getting the 3 out of the way and starting the 4! I have to have the 3 done within a certain time ideally, as I lose my stagiere status by the 2012/13 season and need to get to ISTD level (exams fee's of £1345 excl ET @ 55-150) with my Eurotest as soon as possible, which can be done within the next 2 seasons, if all goes to plan...

R555MAC, Good luck with it all, getting much race training in?

You know it makes sense.

beanie1, it is significantly better. to be honest I hadnt realised that I could start working towards the EMS before completion of my ISIA but simply after completing the L3 mountain safety, the layout makes it much easier to read/understand course information. I also always forget about the written project for the L4, but I was reminded about it when using the improved layout. On that subject, can the dissertation be given to the office before completion of the L3 exams? I havent written one yet I am just curious as I have a lot of time on my hands between now and November and I can then spend some spare time next season working on it, and even talking to people in resort, depending on the subject choice.

I am BASI's representative online - letting them know what is being discussed about BASI in forums etc, and where appropriate I get information from the relevant people in the office in order to answer members' questions.

Not sure, I'll ask. But I don't see any reason why you can't start it!

R555MAC, I spoke with Diane and she confirmed that yes, you can submit your L4 project before you’ve finished your L3.

As somone who's looked at it a few times out of idle dreams/curiosity it's much better than before. Mind you that wasn't hard, all they had to do was put some info on the snowboarding qualifications on there.
