Great that you enjoyed Italia - I'm out to Sestriere in a few weeks and any tips you can pass on much appreciated.
Are the pistes as wide and 'carvey' as they look on the webcams?
Yes mate - the slopes are narrow - wide - short - long - in fact every type of slope you can imagine. Take the Gondola to the right of the resort up the far side of the mountain and you will find simply hundreds of slopes that will simply blow you away.
