The morning was good but by this time, the snow was getting pretty soft and slow... there are some resorts open in Europe but it's all very limited, not much skiing area and mostly on the glaciers...
@@ChasingSnow Right, FWIW, CF is getting really busy as the season comes closer. Got a 1 to 1 on Friday for getting some confidence going to the top, as I've fallen twice before when it was busy, and don't want to risk getting hurt 8 weeks before I'm away. In addition to checking any bad habits I may be getting. On the plus side my parallel and edging on the bottom section are improving, and I'm starting to use the poles to pivot.
Happy it's all working out and I can see you are much better prepared than last season... I think you'll find the longer runs on resorts really helpful for practising... when and where is your first trip?
@@ChasingSnow Jan 11th, Passo Tonale, Crystal has deemed it is really good for beginners, but my 1 to 1 will have to be next Friday as the car failed its MOT, and it'll be tomorrow before everything is fixed. Still got my usual 1 hour practice on Tuesday morning, might risk a single run from the top.
great video like normal, I cant wait for this season and to get back on the snow and for new videos!
Same here! I'm all ready to go, just waiting for some big resorts to open...Cheers!
The spring thaw looked to be well underway, and a final few skiers there. Some resorts are now open in the US.

Good choice going to resorts for beginners... I think there are some amazing ski areas but they're not much use if 95% is not suitable...
