Alison Shayler
[ Skinets Administration ]
Alison is reasonably new to the Alps, having moved to Chamonix in the summer of 2006. Intending to stay just for one winter, the bug bit and plans to return to Liverpool have been well and truly shelved for the foreseeable future. Alison is an enthusiastic, albeit amateur, skier! |
Caroline Face
[ Ski News Reporter ]
Caroline joined the Skinets team at the beginning of the 2007/08 season to assist with our news reporting. No stranger to the Alps, she has been living in Chamonix for a number of years and when she's not on the tail of a good story, she's generally found up the hill on her board. |
Caroline Sayer
[ 3 Valleys Resort Reporter ]
Caroline is one of the linchpins of the Skinets.com organisation and helped build Merinet.com (our original site) to what it is today. A perennial favourite with readers, Caroline also owns the world's only known snow-depth measuring labrador who is made to sit in deep snow to have his photo taken to show how much of a dump has fallen! A huge fan of Meribel, Caroline has ventured throughout the Three Valleys, has been spotted in the Valley Blanche in Chamonix and is the first to sign up for off-piste courses, cross-country skiing, snow-shoeing and other exhausting alternative mountain-sports. |
Chris Richard
[ Ski Editor ]
A director of the company behind Skinets.com, Chris is ultimately responsible for the sites and their content. Having produced much of the early content for the sites, Chris oversees the on-going work to improve standards. A serial seasonnaire since leaving university, Chris now only skis when the snow is in perfect conditions, the weather is fair and the queues are not existant - so about three times a season then! |
George Long
[ Senior Sales & Account Manager ]
George has been in France for 9 years and joined Skinets.com in November 2006. After many seasons working throughout France for a large tour operator, he has now settled in the Chamonix valley. George looks after all the partner businesses that feature on our sites. If you are interested in featuring on the Skinets.com please be sure to get in touch with him! |
Helen McGrory
[ Resort Reporter ]
Helen is a freelance reporter based in Chamonix. Having worked for Skinets.com for 4 years and in the ski industry for many seasons, Helen is a passionate snowboarder (and apres-skier!) and happiest when out and about in the mountains. |
James Fisher
[ Ski Video Reporter ]
James was the first snow reporter for Valdinet.com and has since moved over to being our Video Snow Reporter for Val d'Isere. James works part-time for Henry's Avalanche Talks as a presenter and trainer - and so has extensive knowledge of the snow conditions and what they can mean. James snowboards and has been known to compete in Big Air competitions. |
Jess Whiskin
[ Site Content Editor ]
A new addition to the Chamonix office, Jess is responsible for managing the skinets.com sites across the Alps and looking after our network of resort reporters. Fully fluent in French, 2009 will be her fourth winter in the mountains. She enjoys being outdoors whenever possible and is a keen snowboader, rock-climber and beginner skier. |
Jonathan Trigell
[ Ski & Resort Reporter ]
Writer of the award-winning novel Boy A, Jon is a regular contributor to the ski press and the Skinets.com sites. Mutli-talented author, compere, video snow reporter and intrepid freeskier, Jon always seems to be where the action is at. You can catch up with his latest exploits on his MySpace. |
Mikey Bell
[ Sales & Account Manager ]
A recent recruit to the Chamonix office, Mikey works with George in looking after the accounts of all our partner businesses on the Skinets.com sites. Arrived in Chamonix 5 years ago to do a ski season..... and is still here! |
Robin Deering
[ Skinets Administration ]
Robin is responsible for managing the skinets.com sites across the Alps. Fluent in French, having lived in various parts of France since 2004. Enjoys nothing more than being outdoors whenever possible; snowboarding, climbing, biking or just having a drink on the terrace! |
Rosemary Lake
[ Val Thorens Reporter ]
Ros signed up to help out in Val Thorens from Winter 2006/07, having been put forward by Alan our Courchevel correspondent. After a tricky start with intermittent Internet access Ros has opened up the third of the Three Valleys for us - and for many readers. As a long term St Martin resident, we hope that 2006/07 will be the first of many seasons with us |
