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 :-)

Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

And I can't wait!

So far I have only been on artificial matted slopes and I'm half nervous half excited about tomorrow!

If I just want to get a 2 hour lift pass do I need to pre book or just turn up? It's just that I don't know what time I will get there

If you can get there for 9am you can ski for a tenner for 2 hours- you must pre book online though. This offer is available all week til Xmas eve!

Otherwise you should be ok just turning up...

Thanks Paulfrax. Saw that offer but unfortunatly can't make it there for 9am. Got a two hours drive to get there and I have a horse to feed and muck out before I set off! Thanks for the info x

Millie10, today I went the other way around, had my first go on a dry slope (although it did have a fair bit of real snow on top!)
They are quite different, you might find you move a lot faster and smoother on real snow (and it'll be nicer to fall over on Wink)

Agree that you should pre-book if you can to get the discount. Make sure you allow lots of time to get there, get your skis etc. No harm in being too early, you can always look around the shops. Better that then your time start ticking when you're still getting your boots on.

Have fun!

Millie10, Definitely pre-book. It could be busy as most kids are off school. If there is any problem with the slope/lifts which requires them to operate reduced capacity they will give priority to people who have pre-booked.

Well I survived and had a fantastic time! Only injury I came home with was blisters on my legs from the hire boots Crying or Very sad

I'm suprised they didn't ask me to leave following my first few runs! It's nothing like the dry slopes and I was so scared haha but after the first half hour I really enjoyed it, and yes, much softer to fall on!!!

Managed to fall 3 times. Two of those falls on trying to turn at the start and realizing turning with as much force as you do on the dry slopes results in almost 360 turns lol

Also had a look at the shops and have been eyeing up my first pair of ski boots!

Millie10, glad you enjoyed it!
Are you hooked enough on the real stuff to want to try some proper runs out?
Edit - I just saw your other posts about your holiday coming up! snowHead
