No, you don't want him dead, you want to be there on your very own on that pist with a Swoard gen 3. Angles all set with TD2 Gold diggers standard and Northwave boots at your feet (and no children in the neighbourhood who are hungry :oops: ).

Offtopic: I agree with Nils except that my home is quiet already at 10pm... small baby goes to sleep early - and my wife too:-)
Board? Just a Choc, 180...

Do you take any 3rd gen. boards with you to Zinal for selling to possible impulsive buyers, or just test boards? (would save the shipment and possibly in taxes if it feels like a must-have compared to 2nd hand 1st generation..) :roll:

Hello

I’ve quite new to extreme carving, I’ve got a F2 race board I’ve used a couple of times in Austria & sierra Nevada (Spain).

I will be in Chamonix the week of the ECS 2008 event, I would like to join you on the mountains of Zinal on the 24th (Sunday) but only in the day as I need to get back to Chamonix in the evening.

Do I just turn up? or do I need to pay some sort of fee to use the reserved slope?

I was planning to pay for my 1 day ski lift pass when I get there.

Sorry, I guess this might have been asked before, but could not find the answer: is it possible to purchase the packages (red/blue) there on the spot, or it is inevitable to book it beforehand and pay via credit card / transfer.

Thanks
