Borovets 18th Feb

4 boarders making their way for the fourth time to Boro on the 18th of Feb.

Hope to see Nick and Maria at the Titanic!

Anyone else there then?

Any reviews of the snow park? Wasn't there the last time we visited

Another 4 boarders and 4 skiers coming out from the Isle of Man on 18 Feb too! A couple of the boarders are newbies. The boarders are all lads in their early 20s and the skiers (us!) are two oldies (the parents) and two 16 year old lads.
I did'nt know if it was too early for a roll call but I'm getting pretty excited!!
Sorry dont know anything about the snow park but we will see you there in a few weeks.
Cheers, Helen

re: Borovets 18th Feb

Just booked after a year off recovering from a nasty fall on Yastrebets 2. Am actually quite nervous, but the conditions look fab and if I don't get back on ski's now I may bottle out all together. Coming out on my own as all my friends are tied up doing other stuff but its always such a friendly resort that I'm sure I won't be alone for long! I used to live on the IOM Helen - Ramsey, still miss it now!

Sorry to hear about the accident Caz!

Two weeks Saturday now - weather looking a bit on the chilly side, but plenty of fresh powder on it's way, so should be perfect.

We're staying at the Iceberg - never stayed there, and thee are mixed reviews online.

Has anyone else stayed there?

re: Borovets 18th Feb

the Samakov is really nice.

Still unsure if Iceberg where we are staying this year - very mixed reviews!

I can't recommend the Titanic and Mamacita's enough - really friendly and great food
