Last winter I skied, Kitzbuhel and St. Anton in Austria and they were both unbelievable, and there were a bunch of Brits there.
I also skied Chamonix, France which is pretty ridiculous as well.

If you want to, come to Andorra and ski in Grandvalira, It's cheaper than the Alps

If its november you wanna go somewhere high with a glacier cos there will not be much snow in Europe then, 2alpes, Saas Fee, Hintertux, Tignes Diablerai all have parks.

Yeah, if in November, make sure you go somewhere where there is a glacier... last year, the world cup started in Soelden (Austria) at the end of October. I guess it's pretty decent in late November.

I like Chamonix, cheap, tons of shit to ride, the town is wickid fun, the people are nice, and the beer is chronic. Verbier is dope too, but much more expencive than Chamonix...

Seriously if your studying at a british uni just go whereever the ski club trip goes, there will be two one at christmas which could be anywhere (prob. france - tignes, val d'isere) and then the BUSC trip at easter which this season is going to Les 2 Alpes.
They will be awesome cos there are loads of good skiers and comps where you can win stuff etc.
Also there will be a load of guys just goin out to get pissed, true brit styleee!!!

Yeah i say Ischgl, its an awesome place. The park wasnt great when i went, but that was only because it dumped all week. Best week of skiing ive ever had.

in france, don't bother with 3 valleys (courchevel, meribel, etc) unless you like shredding the groomers - there are better places within 50miles like Tignes, Val d'Isere, La Plagne, La Clusaz, Chamonix, etc.
