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 :-)

Comedy Goldsmith, well, he skied "on" it, he didn't actually ski it. Anyway, good luck to him.

FIFY

Often wondered why the parachute? Why not just make some turns?

Bode Swiller, Haggis_Trap, you make valid points.

My romantic memory was playing tricks on me - I'd forgotten how funny Miura's attempt turned out to be. Great movie, though. Won an Oscar.
