Why does anyone need ski equipment in Singapore?  Just wait until you get to the resort and buy it there.

It depends on the phrase.\n'Tranquilo' in English could mean 'Calm' which is the most likely situation, or also 'Quiet'.

It goes by your height. Short skis for control, long skis for speed. So you need to have a good relationship with your dealer.

It means "off the trail." Off piste is going off the designated groomed trails on the mountain. Its just wild untamed mountain. You are not supposed to ski or board there because it is not checked for safety and not groomed. a lot of skiers/boarders like to for the thrill and danger and also because it is usually pure, that is no one has skiied on it so the snow is flat. Its also more challenging.

The nearest is at Tamworth - but well worth the trip. I live in the South East - so I have further to come. But I've tried the Milton Keynes indoor snow centre and it doesn't compare to Tamworth.Tamworth's slope is long and wide - with a dog-leg and bowl. It's groomed three times a day which is really nice. The instructors and staff there are incredibily friendly and helpful. I find that going once a month keeps my 'ski legs' in shape - so that when I go on a ski holiday I don't waste the first day catching up after a year away from the slopes. Have a look at the web site: http://www.snowdome.co.uk/ - take the interactive tour - then make the trip to Tamworth - you'll love it!  Discount sessions Mon, Wed, and Friday mornings. But more often than not there are 2 for 1 sessions.  As I go regularly I decided it was worth becoming a member. Can't wait for my next trip!

My favorite word comes from the Inuktitut language - it is tujormidlarnak.  It is what you say to someone when they visit you in your home.  It sort of means "Make yourself at home", but its literal translation is "Don't be lonely".\n\nTujormidlarnak!

I'd check my local used ski shop place first...sometimes you can get child programs that let you upgrade the skis as your kids get older.

Backcountry skiing is downhill skiing, but not at a resort. You use the same type of skis though. And you should have GPS and a beacon and shovels and be avalanche certified.\n\nCross country skiing is on a flat trail and the type of skis are different than downhill skis.

You need one leg balance, as you use leg motions much like skates. They go very fast!\n\nhttp://gorp.away.com/gorp/activity/skiing/skateski.htm

Due to the fact that skiing is a little easier to pickup I would say start there, to not only pick up skiing but the rule on the mountains, that way if you still want to learn snowboarding you just have to worry about not landing on your backside.
