19. Leaning against when resting for a bit
20. Using them as a barrier to people who are blatently trying to push in front of everyone in a lift queue. 21. Seeing how much fresh snow has fallen during the night! |
I definately prefer poles, I can do it without obviously, but i feel far more comfortable with the poles. Im no expert skier, like some on this forum, so when a turn goes slightly off balance poles are handy to rely on.

Just returned last night from my half term skiing holiday in Filzmoos. We had quite a lot of fresh snow on Tuesday or Wednesday (cant remember exactly). then it rained one morning but it later turned to snow, and we had a lot of sunny weather. pistes were in much better condition than i was expecting and, although the snow was patchy away from the runs, there was plenty on them. however the south facing runs suffered a little bit especially during the afternoon, with the snow becoming a little slushy with big moguls developing on them. but the north facing runs were great, snow remained goof all day but on the steeper parts it got a little hard and icy.
