Saw a couple in Verbier a few weeks ago. Very good skiers on them!

I’ve spent around 10 weeks in Les Arcs/La Plagne this winter and a week in the Trois Vallees. In that time I’ve seen one mono skier and one skwal. The guy on the skwal was very skilled, a pleasure to watch for the few turns I saw him do. The guy on the monoski was having a bit of fun, but just messing around really.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Saw 6 monos in Les Arcs, and 4 in La Plagne, in one day.
Mix of young and old.
Defo an uptick.

I rode one once, on a deep heavy day. It was a good tool for the job. I only fell once, in a lift line!

Bizarrely in Les Arcs last week I saw a small team of what I can only described as 'synchronised monoskiers' - young guys wearing matching gear and practicing tricks like spins and front flips. I also saw several individual monoskiers - anecdotally I'd say more than I've ever seen, but I could obviously be wrong.

I have a monoski in the garage at home. In the skimum shop in arc 1600 today I saw the for rent at 40 euros per day. They were shorter and fatter than mine.
I saw several out today.

Don’t be mean. He’s just been to Les Arcs. It’s suddenly appeared as the top resort in all his posts. It’s quite sweet

I would imagine Les Arcs is the place for these things.
I've not been there since "Terry Waite" was kidnapped.
It was full on novelty central back then.
