MUCH cheaper to buy in Bulgaria, as thats where they are made.

The factory is in Chepalare which is 10 minutes from Pamporovo.

I bought the latest carvers last year and paid £100.

4th set of skis..... and these are the best I've ever had!!!!

With Dave, they kept the bindings from my old skis and fitted new ones with the spring insole all in the price.

Cracking deal I reckon Razz

I would advise buying boots before skis.

Poor quality boots can ruin your holiday, and you do trust to luck when using hired ones.

I bought my Lange boots several year ago in Bulgaria and paid £80 for them. Best £80 I ever spent. Just like slippers after 2 weeks hard skiing.
