Where’s your head at?!

Life can be an arse. Fact. The drudgery of the 9-5, family pressures, a complicated partner, money worries, health worries... LIFE! It's weird - you can be perfectly fine, everything is going great... but somehow you can just feel MISERABLE! And your head can be your own worst enemy - it'll blow everything out of …

Dear Father Christmas. There are SO many toys I want... obvs I want a new set of skis, a snowboard (one for the park, one for the pow and a split board). I could do with my own surf board (it's gonna have to be massive because I'm rubbish)... now a bike... don't get me …

Ski or board, which is easier to learn?

Ah. The million dollar question. If you speak to keen skiers or snowboarders their answer will almost definitely be biased towards their way of sliding. There still is a (mostly gentle) banter that goes on between skiers and boarders, but frankly as long as you are sliding down a mountain with a smile on your …

Ready to go off piste? Five top tips…

What's off piste? I suppose that's the first question. In short it's anything that's not a groomed run. It can be just the little bit off the side or between runs, but it can be the desolate empty beautiful wilderness away from the crowds. It can be wind swept, icy and hard work or it …

The five most annoying things when travelling.

Travelling (and mostly I'm talking about flying) should be smooth, calm, relaxing, enjoyable... but it's weird how seemingly little things can end up being the most annoying thing in the world. I'm sure we all have different things that annoy the hell out of us (please do add them in the comments below), but here …

Your mates are RUBBISH!

Well, they are a bit aren't they? At uni we all had a big squad of pals through lectures or through sports teams and other clubs. Everyone was always up for doing stuff; going out, going away, living life to the max. I get loads of people saying they wish they could go away and …

What’s the snow going to be like?

This is probably the most common question we get asked when people are thinking about booking one of our ski / snowboard trips... What am I? Some kind of wizard?! Frankly any weather report more than 3 days in advance is mostly guess work. In these weird days of weather it's pretty tricky to predict …

Should I wear a helmet?

The short answer is YES! Every year we see more and more people wearing helmets. EVERYONE wears a helmet while riding a bike for sport, so why not on the snow...? In fact now there are several insurance companies that insist on it. If you are thinking of not wearing a lid it might be …

I feel the need, the need for…

SPEED RIDING?! We've all seen James Bond; whilst skiing flips out a parachute and falls (with style) off the edge of the mountain. And do you know what, it's f-ing awesome and it's called Speed Riding. When you are here in Morzine and if you can at least tackle a red run on skis, you …
