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 :-)

Rubbish weather today so I took my new tech equipped skis out for a skin. Really liked them, light on the legs and much easier to do kick turns, although the ground was not very steep. Also didn't have much trouble clicking in.

Yeah, that 'clicking in' difficulty thing seems a complete fallacy to me too unless of course you can't see your toes. If you remember to waggle the toe end up and down to clear the cleats before heeling down, it's also a more reliable click in and often, in deep, fresh snow, they are actually easier to use than trad alpine bindings because any build-up of snow compacted under your boot doesn't interfere.
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Although conversely putting them on, on icy, steep terrain can be a complete pain in the back bottom.
