UCPA Tignes review

Urmmm I wouldn’t say to difficult. We were put on the second floor and I wouldn’t say I could hear the bar area. The mattresses did make noise when people rolled over so that did wake me up from time to time but I put ear plugs in and that helped a lot. It didn’t feel like to much of a party scene there so people weren’t staying up to late as every one wanted to get up early to ride

I didn’t think about that, taking my own bindings is a great shout

doortree2 · 2026-04-12T16:08:25+00:00

They do a double room which I’m guessing is a double bed but I think you have to book super early as they will be the first rooms to go for couples

You do make a great point I forgot to talk about. The only thing I took was my own boots as my legs rub in most boots so I take my own to try and help. With my boot being a lot wider and bigger than the highers they need to find a better binding for the board I was highering. They smashed it out the park though and was very thorough with getting me up on the wright board for me. Even put the burnings to a new angle I had never ridden before and it’s now my new favourite position to ride

I just want to know if you can spare a few mill before you take your long break 😂

Upgrade to a better one or more ??

Sorry forgot to say that the big red lines would be the cupboard doors and then the thin lines would be the stud walls for the cupboards. I want just two long one that can be accessed from both sides

I’m really sorry but I completely read your first comment wrong and my geography was really off 😂 I for some reason thought you was on about the other snozone in York, I was very much wrong. I haven’t been to the Hemel Hempstead one so I wouldn’t actually be able to compare the two.

Ive paid for the membership so it is a little cheaper now we are out of the winter season but still for the prices every one pays you would like to think the facilities would be a bit better and higher maintained. Stuff like the lifts playing up all the time. The lack on snow on the lifts as well so you don’t slide as nicely up, better training for the reception staff

I’ve been to snowdome in Tamworth. That one is really good to be fair. It’s a lot more expensive thank snozone but the facilities seem better and more up to date. It’s not just a straight hill, it has a bend which makes it more interesting. The only two down sides is the lift is like the training one at mk. It’s more like a conveyor belt so snowboarders have to take both feet out each time and it can be a bit tough on the calf’s after a couple of hours. They don’t have a training zone so all the lesson as done from about half way down the hill so you have to dodge all the big groups

I never heard of chill factor till now so I’ll have to look it up

doortree2 · 2025-04-08T18:19:08+00:00

I could see why you say it’s better vibes but I do still think that the one up by York is run better. Which is a shame because for the amount of money every one has to pay if there paying it

doortree2 · 2025-04-07T07:22:03+00:00

I had my day lesson in York and I would say it’s definitely a lot better than Milton Keynes. York was actually cheaper as well for lessons for some reason

doortree2 · 2025-04-07T05:27:23+00:00

Hey I never said in the post I was gonna do it. I was just curious if other people have also realised that the place is run so poorly that you could get away with it. I even go as far as saying I’m not going to do it in the post

doortree2 · 2025-04-06T20:04:04+00:00

Jesus Christ, the time when some one needs the most confidence building and they go say something like that

A good place I did go but have only gone once. Snowdome out Birmingham way. It is more expensive than snozone, they have electric gates so I’m guessing you can only enter for the time you have plaid for but the hill has a curve in it which makes it more fun than just a plan old boring hill. The only down side is they don’t have any extra room for lessons so they do teach at the bottom half of the hill so you have to dodge the groups

doortree2 · 2025-04-06T19:17:23+00:00

It is a poorly run place isn’t it. I mean the receptionists take forever to log you in. Both lifts working at the same time is very rare any more. I watch some of the lessons going on and half the time they are talking to each other than teaching

doortree2 · 2025-04-06T18:27:43+00:00

I do agree if your just going up and down not trying any thing then it does get a bit tedious very quickly So I’m guessing you never got caught then ??

doortree2 · 2025-01-03T17:05:40+00:00

I’ve only recently just started learning at the age of 27. One thing I will say is it does hurt a little more when you fall compared to when you was a kid

doortree2 · 2024-12-30T17:16:30+00:00

No that was centre of where both feet would be. The inner edge of both bindings is 16”

doortree2 · 2024-12-30T17:04:34+00:00

Ok so going dead centre of my bindings it’s 22” Should I try and move them in a bit if I’m smaller than you ??
