Celebrities do not make a snowboarding destination a good one

January 4th, 2012 posted by admin

I once came across a really funny joke about a person who ordered emergency fuel suppliers for an urgent requirement. Apparently, he was told to call again between office hours. Get the joke? Emergency service suppliers are called so simply because they can be called upon during an emergency without any advance warning whatsoever. A service provider who does not fulfill this requirement is not an emergency supplier at all. Well, I was reminded of this joke when I was searching for popular skiing and snowboarding destinations in Europe.

One website referred me to a popular destination in Austria which was a hit amongst snowboarders and skiers because of the presence of celebrities and entertainers. The funny thing is that the website never referred to the toughness of the course, the challenges, the quality of snow and other such technical parameters. What is the point of a skiing course where is the biggest attraction are the celebrities?
I burst out laughing when I read that the nightlife of the snowboarding destination in Austria was very hot and happening. This means that the possibility of having a great time going down the skiing course with the sunrise happening in front of you is very bleak. After all, people would probably be busy having a good night’s sleep after partying till late in the morning. Call me boring but I prefer a course where my technical skills are challenged to the limits.

Whether the course is frequented by celebrities are not happens to be a completely irrelevant point. Fortunately, there are many enthusiasts in this field who still attach the same level of importance to the actual difficulty of the skiing experience. This sport will be fun as long as such enthusiasts continue to dominate. Otherwise, things will go the tennis way where players without talent but with great fashion sense automatically get top billing
