I have had the same problems, persistant ligament damage in both ankles from playing football. I did my last injury about 3 months ago and am also due to go to Borovets on the 26th. Having done an ankle in very close to going to Bansko last year i, like you, was worried about whether or not i would be able to ski. My advice would be to take strapping, but to be honest i found that as your ankles are locked into the boots this was plenty of support for me and i only felt twinges in the ...

The only thing you'll have to worry about and be careful on in borovets is the icy road between the rila hotel and the gondola station. Hope this puts your mind at rest.

re: Dodgy ankle
Thanks RossHa Ha thinking about it I managed to fall and hit my head last year before I had even got on any skis, as soon as I got off the coach infact!! Very embarassing, so I will bear your advice re the icy roads in mind!!
