TRAVEL WITH WOW.RIDERS

The guides are great, all things considered! It's scary to see how people "develop": they can't go any further. My brain started to "switch off" for a moment from 5200.
After the ascent I skied down from 5100, opening of the season!
Thanks to Kirill Varan for the trip and to Roman for inviting us.

I liked it all, I think that for my skiing level the routes were optimal and interesting. Finally I tried skiing in the snow, it's a little pity that we didn't go down to the south from the border zone for the second time, I think it would have been cool, but everything is ahead))) and this is a safety issue, better to make sure in case of any doubts. It was also nice to get some valuable advise in terms of riding technique on the bumpy trails and riding in general. I'm very happy with the ride and would recommend to anyone. And I hope to ride with you again))

I attended at 9 days skitouring trip held by Elbrus and would like to share my expirience regarding my guide Kirill Chekanov.
​
On my arrival to Terskol i was appointed guide that in my opinion did not have significant English skills. I brought this up with organizator who replaced my previous guide with Kirill. We spent the next 8 days together skitouring the Elbrus Massif.
​
Kirill turned out to be a competent guide as well as nice person with great social skills. His knowledge regarding local conditions as well as safety and high altitude climbing/hihing was very good. In my opinion being able to motivate then needed but also to resrain oveer keen climbers is an important job for the guide. Kirill succeeds in both.

I strongly recommended Kirill to anyone that wants to expirience both intresting ski-touring and summiting Elbrus! Kirill is capable of delivering both in a very good way.

I really enjoyed it, I finally got over the fear of riding that I had a year ago after a bad fall.
With the instructor's explanations, it became much more pleasant and confident. I finally learned about proper riding technique. It was very nice to receive feedback in the form of explanations of mistakes through my photos and videos of the class.
I would recommend him to my friends and hope that I will have the opportunity to do it again :)

Not for everyone, but it's the masses that don't need it. Most of my friends asked: "Why do you need it, to drag yourself up the mountain for 3 hours, for the sake of 15 minutes downhill? In terms of regulations it was very correct to walk a little on the day of arrival and work out the turns, I think it is possible to devote this day in principle to training, if a similar group will be, all the same hesitated the second day, in the end broken bindings Dimas, with me in general a separate story, I had to build and dismantle the split 50 times this day, not to slow down then in the following.
The place
Very unique without so many people, infrastructure, etc., huge uniqueness with such a relatively good transport accessibility. 
The beauty of nature is unparalleled, there are plenty of opportunities to go skiing, even with the presence of megascalers who met us on arrival.
The work of the guide. 
No complaints, everything was clear and to the point, with an emphasis on the main aspect-safety. As I wrote, it was possible to be more engaged in the first day, to go with a reconnaissance, to check snow, without inundation by skiing.
Overall impression. 
Only good. Unusual experience of skiing, ski-touring. The slopes and the snow is awesome, great team and atmosphere. I would gladly come again. I should add that of course it's better to go straight from Kuznya, you can take the train-electric trains and prolong the program for a day or two, making a break after 2-3rd day of ski tour or half-day relaxation with a sauna, the change of regime and time felt, loads, it was a breaking day, though not critical. Call, more).
