Israeli? Wow. Whats the ski scene there like?

But yeah, I was in La Plagne last year. They had a couple of really innovative features out there, and some huge booters. Sounds like fun.

the scene over here isn't really developed, there aren't more than 10 freestyle skiers all over the country cuz we have about one month of snow a year...

i've seen some pics of the resort and it looks great...

Israel? crazy - i always assumed it was rather dry and mostly desert....


La plagne is pretty good - went there when i was younger so can't really remember much about it - it is pretty large ski area and several glaciers to boost down - apparently the park is pretty good

you will have a great time!

Im hitting up Espace Killy, france next Saturday too! can't wait soo stoked!

I still don't know where I'm going next Saturday. I'm getting on a flight to Geneva, and when I land, am going to get on a random bus or train.

La Plagne is awesome! I stayed at Bellecote last year. Only entered the green/blue park though, everything was out there to kill you in the red/black park =/ Catch up with some locals or hire a guide if you want to go outside the pistes, there are a lot of amazing spots there!

I think the rails/boxes are pretty fucking scary too xD
But you're right, the jumps are pretty big =P
