Avalanche,Being in Borovets, i'm not familiar with Pamporovo. And I know very little about type 1 diabetes.
I'm sure the medical staff would be familiar with all types of diabetes. Take the normal precautions. Make sure he always boards with someone....not alone..and advise his snowboard instructor etc.
One suggestion would be to visit the medical centre on your arrival and make them aware of the situation.
