Not yet, but in two weeks time with Mrs Stumpy. Dont forget your crash pants for the first few days and welcome to the cool world of boarding Mr Jedi, have a good one

Had to cancel my trip in early Jan as mates told me they were stuck inside due to blizzard forecast to last 5 days (it did) ! Zermatt for week of 28th. Some of my best days ever have been in the mountains with the kids.
Have fun (it will be hard not too)
Riding going great btw, confidence, composure, control - just feels so much much better. Big thank you.

Get a grip !!! Its one week without your bike but you will be riding your board (spending time on your arse whilst learning).I bet your daughter kicks your arse
You will love it once it all clicks into place, trust me I,m a Yorkshire man.

Forget the pants, buy some wrist guards!
I'm out in Steamboat at the mo, you'll forget your bike the first time you hit the powder

chamonix - full of phenomenal off-piste possibilities - amazing place.
stick to Brevent and Flegere as there primarily South facing and nice and warm when the sun's out.
grand montets is my fave hill in the area - may be a bit too much if this is your 1st week though.
great bar in town too that serves it's own micro brews.
bon chance !

@nedrapier is that the Glacier Ronde exit/cosmiques? One of my favorite descents that.

Jedi, I saw your pics on Facebook, was very tempted to leave a comment about your body positioning and where you where looking
Incidentally I just had a great ride at llandegla today, mainly thanks to new wider bars and your training finally, after 7 months, seemingly starting to have effect!Posted 3 months ago # -
that was first day
