Single-skiers needn’t be left out in the cold
Are your friends coupled up for the winter leaving you out in the cold?
Or perhaps you're fed up of being stung by single supplements. Whether you're looking to join a lively group for some hillside banter, share in a pleasant après-ski chocolat chaud with new friends (who knows - romance could blossom!) or meet up with likeminded fearless adrenaline junkies for a morning's heli-skiing, Ski*Pals is the answer!
Ski*Pals is a new and exciting website and social networking tool dedicated solely to the slopes. Solo skiers and boarders can now easily find new friends to spread the costs and share the fun of winter sports holidays with a friendly face by your side.
Some recent solo Ski*Pals buddies:
Richard Clark, North Yorkshire
"My name is Richard Clark, I am from North Yorkshire, aged 55 and an intermediate ski-er. I like to ski in Europe and am particularly keen on Megeve. I normally ski with family or friends but this year am currently on my own and looking for a ski pal. I enjoy cruising down blue and red runs, no blacks as I have a dodgy hip. I would be happy for someone to join me ski-ing on the slopes either in December 2010 or January 2011 to ski in Europe. Any takers?"
Chidders, UK
"I am visiting Verbier with friends in February 2011, the group I am travelling with are of beginner to intermediate ski level however I am at more of an expert level. I am looking for a ski partner who is interested in taking more risks- black runs/ off piste skiing and even extreme activities such as heli-skiing."
Snowsearcher, UK
"Anyone keen to do the Tarentaise tour? If so I would be interested in seeing if we could perhaps share the costs of transfers/accommodation/guides etc. Thinking March 2011 would be a good time but fairly flexible on dates. Let me know!"
So kiss goodbye to costly single supplements and get more out of your winter sports holiday by posting for free on Ski*Pals and seeing who you might meet.
