 • 11-Week Instructor Course
 HAHA!
I got here first!
Hello you horrible lot!
I thought I would be the first to post for the banff gang, obviously I will be on the 11 week course for the CASI I and hopefully II!
I am flying out on January 10th, want to know who I am gunna be with and have to fight for the window seat on the plane!
I am 20years old and currently living in the South West of England near Torquay!
I cannot sleep at night - too excited about the course and meeting everyone!
I have been boarding for about 5 years, and would consider myself intermediate, I have yet to challenge the park so I hope to learn alot off the rest of you nutters!!
- ok i'll shutup now!

I am going out to Banff for the 11 week course with the missus.
We live in Cheshire, not far from Chester.
I have been riding for about 10 years. I'm 32.
We are also flying out on the 10th. The weeks are flying by.

 Hey gang,
I'm so excited too - and so glad this forum is up as it gives me an excellent opportunity to look like I'm working at my (really boring) temp job...typing away...
I'm 21, graduated from Bristol in July and not knowing what to do, decided on skiing!
Can't wait to get out there - only a month to go now! Am flying out on the 10th, in a room of three - does anyone know who they're with yet?
See you all at Heathrow!

Can't believe that January is finally in sight now and cannot wait!!
Looking forward to meeting everyone, having a great time and leaving behind the mundane day to day office life.
Not long now!
See you all there!

 Hi Guys,
Ali, from the NONSTOP office here. Thought I'd make contact on our spanking new forum, think you'll all agree it's pretty cool.
I guess you've all started counting down the days. Am very jealous, up until May I'd spent the last 7 skisons (you see what I did there?) in the French Alps, skiing, working and playing hard.
However, I'm chuffed to bits to be working at NONSTOP. I've finally found a way to combine my passion for skiing and seasonal life with all the benefits of full time employment, (namely a higher ranking on the food chain!)
The only advice I have is, go out there and have an absolute blast! And before that, try and get as fit as possible. It's not too late to start, just walk every where you can and run up all the stairs you come across (two at a time) between now and then. Even after a seasons skiing I still feel the burn at the end of a full on day on the hill (and that's nothing to do with burning the candle at both ends for 5 months! Honest!).
So my count down starts here, only 95 days to go ‘til I come out and see you all!
Take care, have fun and enjoy paradise.
Ali

 Hey all,
Glad to see everyone dropping in!
What sort of riding level is everyone at? You guys mainly free-riding / freestyle?
So I will have to fight Peter & his missus for a plane window seat (a bit of an unfair advantage I must say Peter) and Joe !! umm I am a bit out-numbered where's the gurls!!! Nice to meet you guys anyway!
All the early birds going out there will have to warm our seats

 Hi Ali,
I have watched the people in the park thats about it!! Focussed more on freeriding. So no doubt I will still be stuck at the top!
You went to Andorra? where did you stay. I was there in February - Soldeu El Tarter.
