 Poster: A snowHead
|
I've not posted on snowheads before so forgive me if this isn't the right place.
I'm 23 I used to go on my school ski trips when I was younger I last went when I was 17.
I've wanted to ski since then but none of my friends/family ski and dispite my encouragement they either do a couple of lessons at the local dry slope or show no interest what so ever.
I'd class myself as an intermediate skiier i've not skiied on snow since 2008 on an indoor slope in Dubai! However I do still pay a couple of visits a month to my nearest dry slope 'In season'.
Anyway if anyone knows of a trip i could tag along with it'd be nice to hear!
Cheers,

Hi mjsginetta,
And welcome to snowheads.
Plenty of people travel alone and then meet up with folk to ski with once they are there - given that you're all doing the same thing all day, it's easy to get along with people in the evenings etc.
One option to look at is the snowheads bashes which admin organises at regular intervals during the winter. Alternatively a number of chalet companies, including ourselves, offer either certain weeks or certain rooms with no single supplement.
Happy planning!

mjsginetta: welcome to snowheads. It sounds to me like one of the snowheads bashes would suit you well. There are three or four (or more?) planned this season.

Hi all, I often go to Snozone in Milton keynes from London or the Snow Centre for either snowboard or skiing, I am an intermediate skier and a beginner snowboarder, if anyone would like to come (usually on a Friday night or Sat) then let me know and we can meet up! Mjsginetta, I see you are in Colchester...are these two places convenient for you?
Best to get some practice before heading out to the big mountains I say!

mjsginetta, you might like to look at the holidays organised by Action Outdoors at UCPA centres in France, in a variety of top resorts. They are exceptional value for money, as the price includes full board, lift pass, equipment hire and (depending on the holiday you choose) tuition, which is of a high standard.
They are very good for people travelling alone. You'll find there are lots of people in the same boat, and you'll not be short of company for a beer or two in the evenings. I have no commercial interest in this outfit, but my son in law did a couple of trips with them on his own, and then did a further one with my daughter, after they got together. They are both pretty good skiers and enjoyed the tuition in the top group in the Flaine Centre.
