Hey!
It's been a while since i've been on this forum!
I've just signed up to take the BASI level 1 at Chill Factore in July. If there is anyone reading this who has already passed it, any tips and advice would be of lots of help! I've been riding for years but know for sure that I have picked up lots of bad habits :-/

Anyone else doing it in July (14th to 18th)?

The usual advice I give: have fun, make friends, go in with an open mind and know that you're going to get your riding taken apart and rebuilt. It's a damn good course.

Most courses are run by Ash ( snowcoach ) as you said great guy , and as was said make new mates , ride and have fun ........................... and if your crazy enuff , buy a pad in a resort , use it , rent it out but have a place to just go to and chill and ride .............. maybe a good time just to rent in the uk and buy abroad ;+)

Thanks guys, I'm very excited, I've been meaning to take it (or the old ASBI or whatever it was called) for years but the only courses I could do were on dryslope and being a wussy girl I decided I would prefer the easier option on snow :0)
