Own material
If you have your own equipment that you would like to use, you can bring it with you, but it is not necessary. We recommend that you bring a helmet (can be rented in some destinations).
Some centers allow you to store your equipment securely with a lock, but you will need to bring a padlock with you.
A 20 L backpack is good to take with you for day trips, in Argentière and Chamonix you always take your lunch with you on the road, so you need a backpack there.
Welk niveau heb jij?
You will be classified on the spot based on your level. There is often the very first lesson on Sunday to see what level everyone is at. The groups are created on this basis.

Throughout the year you will notice price differences, reflecting the most popular and less popular weeks. The cheaper weeks often mean that the slopes will be quieter, but on the other hand the nightlife will be less lively (depending on the location). From early to mid season the weather can usually be quite different, but the snow is often good. In mid-season (usually February and March) the snow can be a bit icy and very cold in the mornings, but the days start to get longer, the weather more stable and the snow even better. By April the weather is a bit warmer and the days are longer, but the snow cover starts to decrease.
