ski-region - favs?

by SPU9 • 5 Dec 2011, 20:36 • Journals
hey guys,

i just saw the first snowflakes so i would like to know your favorite ski-region?

i was snowboarding in Switzerland Laax, Austria Zürs/Lech, Italy Livigno, France Avoriaz and some smaller/not so known regions.

what are your favorites for skiing and boarding?
I wanna test something new - so any good/special suggestions for a short winter trip? (for a good destination)

have a nice evening!

Slovakia is the cheapest by far. And having more money to waste and ski/snowboard like anywhere else is better than to pay more money for the same thing in Austria for example.

And it's not shittier than in France or Austria.

well, the pists are really not bad and stuff, often not so overfilled...

BUT.. I noticed a huge difference when I got injured at snowboarding (was laying on da ground after a fail, WELL VISIBLE! and some stupid skier drove over my arm and I had a huge cut on the arm) it took almost a whole hour till the emergency services arrived, and another 45 mins till the helicopter came, so I almost bleeded to death :/

I once had an accident in austria (kitzbühel, my home) where I managed to completely fuck up a landing after a huge air (broken rips, respiratory failure, etc; at all 3 months of hospital). Took the emergency services about 5 mins to arrive and about 15 mins till the helicopter arrived!

Moral of the story: don't get injured.
Parent
▼
infect 6 Dec 2011, 11:33
Yeah idd. Dont get injured. But one bad experience doesnt necessarily show how it all works. Perhaps you were just in a bad place in a bad time, that's all.

aiRen 6 Dec 2011, 14:44
cheapest? :D

Maybe for you it´s, but for us it wasn´t . Why I will spend more moneys to f#cking TMR group (J&T) if I can buy a 1 week ticket to Alps with same price?
Parent

infect 6 Dec 2011, 15:46
hmm, it's like half the price compared to Austria/Switzerland lol :D
