Is it a first come first serve policy and if so does all the decent swag go out straight away, also does all this depend on which hire shop we have to go to? If it helps i'm in the Rila first week of March and am going through Neilsons.
I know there is a s*it loada quesies here but if anyone can answer one of them this would be a BIG help.
I have been to Borovets several times now - not really had any problems with skiis etc. if you get a good instructor and there are any problems he will sort them - I have had them sharpened and waxed.
I am out there 1st week in March with my wife and daughter.
if inghams you are laughing, all new salomon kit. (skis/boots)
if thomsons/crystal, kit is as old as the hills, and well past it. we ended up buying boots in resort as the hire ones were killing us. Don't do it buy boots which will fit properly at home.
if staying at the samokov new kit for this year, (skis/boots)
