We went to Zakopane as part of a trip of three guys (one a non skier) to see if we could go skiing from the Uk for less than £100. It was the end of the season but would recommend anyone to see what Zakopane has to offer. See how we got on from our video, search "jump wide" on Youtube for our experience.
