    Heard good things about panaroma, intrawest are like the disneyworld of snow. You can get deals to banff for 299 during the season at times. What airport do you fly to for Panorama? I might try and head there this season at some point instead of canada.

    4.5 MONTHS TILL SOL FOR ME - W00P!

    Managed to get pulled under the button lifts at XScape last week after my knee gave way again. Injured it playing football 2 months back and im shitting it that it will still be iffy when i hit the slopes for real.

    Would hate to be one of those people you see in the bars in the evening being wheeled around in a wheelchair by their mates with a cast on one or both legs :lol:

    Is there much they can do for ligament damage though - i suppose i could get it done privately on our company scheme ... means signing up to it for a few months tho.

    Just cant see what they can do apart from recommend i strap it up and rest it.

    My mates done his knee and shoulder in, both times he had physio on them to help it recover quicker. Otherwise find some exercises to do that are meant for recovery and work at them. Building your knee up will do you a lot of favours when your hammering the mountain 8 hours a day for a week.

    Depends on the ligament and the amount of damage - see a specialist orthopaedic surgeon :up:
