Had a great time, you will love it. I was glad I was with skiiers as there are a fair few flat bits between the lifts that they dragged me along.<br /><br />I skiied as a child, moguls, so I was good at that but never really got to go proper skiing so that might scare me!triohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10136331702567336557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-160217315493191006.post-1821820793566092442010-01-06T18:16:42.922+00:002010-01-06T18:16:42.922+00:00We're in the Paradiski area, staying in Montch...We're in the Paradiski area, staying in Montchevin village and skiing from Le Plagne. I'm a bit the same, except it sounds like you're a way better skier than me! I loved my first week, and was storming round, then completely lost my nerve at the end of my second week after a bad experience - here's to recapturing my nerve! Got a one-on-one session at the Snow Dome on Friday to help me out, which I reckon will be a real boost, and going with a group of all mixed abilities so that should be really good.starfish264https://www.blogger.com/profile/14024515361050828981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-160217315493191006.post-39413352976870567302010-01-06T17:14:59.525+00:002010-01-06T17:14:59.525+00:00I found it really hard to learn to snowboard as I ...I found it really hard to learn to snowboard as I was so used to the independent leg action!<br /><br />Although don't do what I did after over three years off, offer to race and then first run through a slalom course!

...Seems I need to make more friends further north!<br /><br />You'll love skiing again, it'll come back to you like riding a bike, anything has got to be better than hanging around over here!<br /><br />Says me that can't ski to save herself, unless it's straight into a tree! ;o)Alihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03785465916596100502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-160217315493191006.post-71238448176043837382010-01-06T13:35:44.740+00:002010-01-06T13:35:44.740+00:00Ali - it's right over on the West Coast on one...Ali - it's right over on the West Coast on one of the Southern peninsulas overlooking the islands of Isla and Dura. Very remote, very rural, and very, very beautiful. It was great as we were at a friends cottage, which is pretty basic and rough 'n' ready, but lush with 11 of us piling round the wood-buring stove in the evenings.<br /><br />Trio - hoping that works for me! It's 5 years since I was last on skis, and I think I'm going to feel very unco-oridinated with my feet on two separate things - damn, I'm going to miss snowboarding!! Especially if there's powder.
