Do the camp experience to CoC is less dope if i'm a french canadian who is not a complete bilingual person?  Is there a lot of french speakers at CoC cause i'm going there alone?

 mostof the french guys were in the pro cmap last year, it would be cool to have a french speaking session or group with some french coachs or something. wink wink  lol

seriously he skiing will makes up for the lack of communication and it'll help you with your english.

not everyone speaks french, mainly because most people that go arent from quebec, but you shouldnt have too hard of a time.  itll still definitely be sick as hell.  just let your skiing do the talking.

I hope so but if I'm alone, I'm scared to have some trouble lodging myself.  For example, if I have no friends on arrival day.

But if you're a french speaker or a Quebec skier (maybe alone lol) and you're planning a little trip to CoC this summer, post which session.

If there's anyone, I'm gonna sweet talk some girls!!!

Oh hello. I ski in French too! I ski French to a few buddy who have places there. I looked at a bear once there, and he rummaged through my garbage. So I trew a bottle beer, but it just bounces off his bac. So I trows another one and he hits him straight in the nose. I trew it in Whistler.

J'ai trop sick!

just from reading your posts you can obviously tell english is your second (or more) language but you also obviously know enough of it to express your thoughts enough that i could pick up on it just fine. you shouldnt have any problems up there man

Hey Dude, no worries on speaking mainly french! We have A LOT of french peeps at camp. So many in fact that we call our rail park at the bottom of the pipe "Quebec".

You'll fit right in and as a side bonus, the girls from the states love the french accent!

See you this summer!
