[u/AutoModerator]

Welcome! This is the place to ask your skiing questions! You can also search for previously asked questions or use one of our resources covered below.

• The guide for beginners by a professional bootfitter and tech.
• The sidebar and related ski subreddits.
• Wondering what gear to buy? We recommend you start by reading Blister's annual Winter Buying Guide. Also, consider asking any questions at r/skigear.
• For real-time chat, check out our Discord

Use this thread for simple questions that aren't necessarily worthy of their own thread -- quick conditions update? Basic gear question? Got some new gear stoke?

If you want to search the sub you can use a Google's Subreddit Specific search

Gonna make a spontaneous trip to Chamonix-Mont-Blanc but not sure where can I find a decent 2hr beginner skiing class. Could anyone give me some advice? Many thanks!!
