We opened in Val Thorens.

Since this Saturday, the Val Thorens ski area is open for the whole season. The good weather was part of a beautiful opening day.

70% of the ski area was open with the new Moraine gondola lift which can accommodate 10 people per cabin.

Snow level we are at the beginning of the season, you should not want to venture off-piste... except for a few exceptions. The snow was hard but good, we can note the excellent work of the Val Thorenspiste service.

The perfect day to get back on your feet and regain the good sensations of skiing.

We tested Monnet's Gelprotech socks...

For this first day of skiing we wanted to test the Gelprotech socks. The creation of this product comes from the observation that many skiers feel pressure from the ski boots on the edge of the shins.

This is achieved by inserting a gel pad inside the sock at the tibia.

It was our first day of skiing and who says first day of skiing: fear of stones and therefore fear of damaging his equipment. Although yesterday if we stayed on the slopes it wasn't true.

It was voluntarily tested with a pair of shoes that has been used over a hundred times. Result after a day of more than 7 hours of skiing the Gelprotech is really taking its toll. And sincerely the effect must be even more beneficial with a new pair or 1 to 3 years of use.

Little tip: put your sock on properly. Gelprotechand put her in her ski boot and that's it.

The French brand Monnet proposes with occurs a real evolution in the comfort of the skiers... And moreover the product is Made in France.
