About the quiz
You answer seven questions about how you spend a day on the mountain. Each answer gives points to one or two of the eight skier types, and the type with the most points is your result. If two types are level, the one you scored for most recently wins, so the same answers always give the same result.
No. The types are for fun. The resort lists under each type are not: they are picked from our resort database by one stated rule per type, such as the highest share of expert terrain among ski areas with at least 100 km, and the figure that earned each place is shown next to it.
No. The quiz runs in your browser, sets no cookies and sends nothing to us. Your result exists only as the address of the page you land on, which is also what you share.
Yes, and most skiers are a mix. Take the quiz again with what you would do on a powder day, a family holiday or a trip with friends and you will often land on a different type.
