(Translated by Google) Excellent instructors. My class was with the instructor Henry, just excellent. Highly recommended if, like me, you have zero knowledge of surfing but have always wanted to learn, now is the time.
I also spoke with Jordy and other members of the team, they are all great people. I recommend it 100% and I can't wait for my next class in 15-22 days.

Excelentes instructores. Mi clase fue con el instructor Henry, simplemente excelente. Muy recomendado si al igual que yo tienes cero conocimiento del surf pero siempre has querido aprender, es el momento.
También conversé con Jordy y otros integrantes del equipo, todos son excelentes personas. Lo recomiendo 100% y no puedo esperar para mi próxima clase dentro de 15 o 22 días. - via
Mixed experience. The sun was phenomenal and the snow was perfectly ok. The wind was low. I preferred Sauz D'Oulx and Sansicario and it is surprising how little skiing there is in actual Sestriere.
So why were so many lifts shut during perfect conditions? I'd estimate that 10% of the lifts were shut including most button lifts and the long chair to the right of Nubla Nueva in Sestriere. I can only guess it is due to economising by the new owners of the area. The problem with shutting lifts is that you limit the skiable domain - so you are shrinking the ski area.
Sestriere and the Milkyway is a perfectly good area but it is tired and needs investment. It has a lot of competition now and I wonder if the new owners really want too upgrade it? Shutting lifts is not a good start. - via
