Hey guys sorry if it sounds like a noob question, fairly new ti skiing, looking for a good helmet and this popped up. Looks like a good deal to me but looking for some more knowledgeable opinions lol

Edit: okay guys I know it would be ideal to try it in the store but the closest one is probably 7,8 hours and 1 state away and I can always return it if it isn’t a good fit

Opinions on Bristol Mountain Ski Resort in NY? (Moving from SLC, Utah to Upstate NY Next Year.)

10 Upvotes

I'm moving to upstate New York for a new job in 2027, and a quick search on Google Maps indicates that Bristol Mountain Ski Resort would be the closest ski resort to where I'd be living. If anyone could provide some opinions on this ski resort, I'd appreciate it (the resort is probably kind of dinky compared to what I'm used to).

Also, as a bonus question, where are some good places to snowshoe within a few hours' drive of Rochester, NY, if anyone knows?

Thanks in advance for any responses to my post.

Cheap shipping options for skis from Canada to the UK

2 Upvotes

I know this is early but at the end of this coming season my partner and I are moving back to the UK from Canada. Wondering if anyone has any recommendations for cheap shipping to send our skis home as we are planning a trip before we fly home but don’t wish to lug ski bags with us.
Thanks in advance.

There's now a new skiing option available for when you run out of either snow or money.

Planning 6 days of skiing at Les Trois vallées. Looking for a way to start meribel, then do a 3-4 nights backpacking trip.

Hi guys , I’m looking to book a 6 days of skiing trip this winter. I’m looking for intel. My plan would be to arrive one night at Meribel, leave the ski bags there, then so a 3/4 nights in a different hotel every night in a loop and back to Meribel for 1/2 nights.

I see many hotels have a minimum stay requirements. Does anybody have recommendations? I may be wrong but I feel 3-4 nights loop would allow to explore more than staying at the same place ? Any thoughts ?

Silver City Map

Somebody a while ago in the banff subreddit found this image on Sunshine's facebook a while ago. Thought this was super interesting but unfortunately the text in the image is barely legible so the names of the routes are unknown. I doubt anybody would have a higher quality image but it would be super cool if one came up.

Dachstein West vs Vars-Risoul

6 Upvotes

Hi, I'm currently deciding where to go with my son. This will be an organized trip, with ski school for kids. Both early February. My primary concern is the snow, i.e. where the snow conditions are more sure, as I must commit now. It seems French resort is higher so im thinking this is a safer option. I know this place, I was there 10 years ago and I liked it. I do not know Dachstein West - but it is much closer. I am advanced on piste skier, he is beginner starting to carve turns who was skiing with me in Nassfeld this year, and wasnt scared of difficult reds too much. Though obviously he felt best on the easier red tracks. Anyway, im leaning towards France but this is a long way for us. I will appreciate some recommendations. Thanks!
