    PostHeaderIcon Things To Know Before You Ski

    Skiing does require a little planning and research before you go, but it’s worth it’s weight in gold when you choose the right resort.

    Choose your location – Whether you choose to stay in your own country or travel abroad, research the areas you are interested in and shortlist the ones which fit most of your ideals, and your budget.

    Pick the right resort – Make a list of everything that is important to you for your skiing trip and make sure the destinations you have shortlisted will fulfil your needs. For example, will you need a nursery? What type of bars and restaurants does the resort have? Who is the resort aimed at, for example is it a destination for 18-30 year olds, a family resort…

    Pick the right accommodation – Depending on your budget you may wish to stay in a chalet, apartment, or hotel. Luxury chalets are available all year round in some resorts, such as Samoens in the French Alps. Check availability, reviews from guests, and proximity to amenities and lifts.

    Stay warm – Sub-standard clothing or a lack of layers may leave you cold and tired. Be sure to layer up, remember gloves, scarf, hat, as well as your jacket and pants which should be waterproof. You will need a little room, but not too much, in your clothes as skiing requires a fair amount of bending and flexing. And don’t forget your sunglasses!

    Equipment – Talk to your assistant in the hire shop. They are highly knowledgeable and will make sure you get the right skis based on the information you give them. Your skis have blades on the edges which cut through the snow so be careful when carrying them with bare hands.

    Finding the right ski boots can be a bit more of a chore. Again the assistant will help you, always be honest with them about how comfortable your boots are. Take a pair of ski socks with you to try on at the shop, as they make a huge difference to the fit of the boot. You should have a little room at your toes but make sure your heel cannot move upwards once the boot is on and fastened. Ill fitting boots will cause you problems very quickly. If they are too tight you will become uncomfortable very quickly as your legs and ankles take a lot of the pressure when skiing. If they are too loose you will lose some control of your turns and have to work harder to regain power over your manouvres. With all hired equipment don’t be afraid to take it back and swap if you have any problems, everybody is different and the shop are quite used to it.

    Planning – Find a ski resort with a good learning program and enough green slopes (and may be the occasional red) to keep you entertained when you feel confident enough to ski the slopes. Virtually every resort will have a ski school which you can read up on to check it will suit you. Remember to never ski alone under any circumstances or if you must, always have a mobile phone or some way to contact others.

    Etiquette – There is some etiquette in skiing. General rule is that if you are higher up the slope, you are responsible. It’s really important to be aware of others around you at all times, especially those below you as they can’t see you.

    Europe has many great ski resorts with an abundance of learner slopes and great ski schools. Samoens in the Grand Massif, French Alps lies in the heart of the Haute Savoie. A great destination for all levels of skier with links to other resorts. Samoens chalets are built in a traditional Savoyard style I keeping with ‘one of the prettiest towns in the French Alps’.
