Best "places" 4 spring carving?

Post by **Alex** » Thursday 19 April 2007, 20:04

the official carving season is ending ...but some day of vacation has coming and chose the right place is very difficult also for the warm temperature over the Europe ...the sea can still wait me for little

I'm thinking about Tignes or Stubai ...do you have some advise considering the area of France, Italy or Austria ?

Hy Alex.
Tigne / Val d'Isère was realy good a week ago, still good for your end off saison, for freecarving, but not for extremcarving, to soft under the board.
For me, it was the end yesterday:

But perhaps if somebody make a session at Tigne...

Thanks István... for your pictures

I saw pitztal only from soelden top... and the hight slope seem to be very good for carving!

There is one slope coming down from the top tha is suitable for EC, however not that extremely steep.... but you can lay and link turns....

ciao alex

i think the slope on the top of the klein matterhorn 3600m are good.
All the slopes on the glacier are open all the year .

And it's really near you. You just have to go to cervinia and take the cable car.

nice carving

Hi sam...thank you!

I know the slopes of matterhorn... and is only 2 hour from my home but there's only one slope at the top that is good for carving so I'll go there in july...when the other places are out of order!

now...i'm thinking about:
-Saas Fee
-Tignes (but piccolo san bernardo is closed...so it's very long travel)
-Stubai
-Pitztal

Ciao
