Try John @ Dragon Lodge, they're a good bunch too.
Natives is very generic and recruits people called Zara and Rupert who need to find somekind of job in Verbier darling... Join up if they sound like your people (easily identified with rugby jerseys and ugg boots)
@ CrazyJames Not sure why you'd suggest being a shaper unless you could ride the park really really well? and speak German? and drive a snowcat? Good job if you can tho...the bar at the bottom of the park does a mean beer and pizza too.

check out pleisure holidays, guy called pete, runs a sweet little bar/snowboard lodgings in courchevel 1550 really nice bloke looks after his staff well.

I used to work for them and they're a great company to work for. Everyone rides and is all about getting time on the hill.
Bar jobs are too social if you want riding time, you won't get first tracks very often if you finish work at 4am every night (which you will)
They might have some jobs left check the website and drop them a line.
Be prepared to work your balls off and snowboard whilst still drunk from the night before (that's after getting up at 7am to start work) HAPPY DAYS

here's an idea if you want to ride singlespeed without buying another bike...put it into 44-16 and don't change gear?
The only thing to remember when riding fixed is just keep pedalling, yes it really is that simple. As soon as you forget this, your legs will quickly realise what's going on!
This is a track frame so it will feel a bit 'tighter' - the back wheel is tucked right under your bum giving you better acceleration, the steering angle is steeper meaning it will be more responsive.

58cm seatpost to headset, 53cm seat tube height- Mavic Rims CXP 22, straight and true
- Selle Italia Royal saddle, few scuffs on the back
- Black onyx grips, very very comfy
- Planet X bars
- Sugino messenger cranks 165

This bike is in perfect working order, however the paint work on the frame has quite a few cosmetic chips on it. There are NO DINGS just chipped paintwork. This isn't a hipster clown bike, i ride it everyday come (not too heavy) rain or shine.
Annoyingly this morning i managed to break a spoke in the rear wheel. I trued the wheel back and it runs fine but will need to be fixed at some point
Im 6'4 and have the saddle at the height in the picture.
Lights and saddle bag not included.
These are only camera phone pics i know so if you'd like any more info or pictures of specific bits please drop me a line.
Don't want to split, no dibs, PM me...

This is a pretty cool video...sitting at the bottom in the No.1 spot watching the world's top riders come down and try to beat your time must be nerve racking enough...to have got so close 4 times before too.."shitting bricks" i believe his comment is.
Then that beautiful moment when he realises that Gee isn't going to beat his time.
Like the true champ he is, someone hands him a bottle of rum and he takes a good old swig

Glad to avoid a slap with a swift and humble apology. They were very angry though... Must have been a slow night.
Note to self: drink less and grow up more.
Damn straight they were angry, i was standing close by when i heard this little set to...not sure if it was the cleverest thing you've ever said to a woman just passing by
BUT
the timing was impeccable...
