Pamporovo

Will be off to Pams 06.01.07, I do have faith in the god of snow, however as its my first attempt at snowboarding, would you suggest I buy a board, bindings and boots over here or hire the lot when I get there?

Just in case I dont see any snow and not get to use a shiny new board! (which I had forked out for!)

Thankyou very much in advance

Jo why do you want to but a board if it is your first time? Awful big pay out if you find you don't like it. WHy not just rent it all?

i'm off to pamps for xmas.....preying it'l pick up but im not convinced....roll on the

re: Pamporovo

I had heard that the boards for hire in Pamps (not Pams as above) are a bit rubbish. But I suppose that hiring would work out for the best especially as it looks like theres going to be a very thin layer of snow protecting me from the soil.

I do have faith in the snow gods.
I will be very miffed if theres no snow especially as its my first snowboarding holiday and theres only a few sleeps left!
