Third Real Snow – February 2013 – The Grand Massif, Morillon, France

My Third skiing holiday back in February 2013.  Great time again on Dahu, Marvel and loads of other runs.  Great skiing with my friends Oli and Miles (and parents).

Again ski schooled with ZigZag, and completed the Vermillion Cristal award with Seb!  Like 2012, it was amazing and this time loads of off-piste skiing.  Unlucky not to get the award above, Gold Cristal, but as you can see from the photo below I was the smallest and youngest ! and the powder was a little challenging ! All good experience !

Took part in the local ESF Fun Slalom, although the two local girls took it very seriously!  Only just beaten by the 16yr and 14yr by less than 0.5 second ! and they had full race set up, whereas I was on my hired Salomons !  (need to take my skis next year !)

I did try to say to my Dad that if I had a pair of these then I would be faster (maybe I need to grow older to understand its not the logo that creates the speed) “One day Son!” said Dad !
