As I was unable to ski much last week, I spent a lot of my time in the Snowshack with Garry, Ted, Moey, and Stan.
Most of their time was taken up in repairing boards that had been severely damaged by the rocks that are unfortunately dominating almost every run.

I had some Blizzards on hire in Bansko this year and Steve c has bought a pair. Really good skis I think. Also easy to spot in the racks as they are not so common as other makes.Val
Rough luck on the skiing Pete
