I find the best thing to take are tops that you can easily layer up . I can board in anything from just a t shirt all the way up to thermals with jumpers and a fleece if it is really cold
Don't need to go mad , couple of thermals , couple of jumpers and a fleece that fits under your jacket should be fine -
I wear themals under my ski pants these are the same as wearing leggings if you have a few pairs of those. Top half I have a long sleeve T-shirt, short sleeve T-shirt, thin fleece, hoody and coat.... depending on the weather any concoction of the top half items. I don't actually own any top thermals as such T-shirts do the same job for me and much cheaper. As Lefty says as long as you have a few layers you can play around with you'll be fine

Thanks i've got plenty of layers for top was'nt sure about bottom half. Wil take some leggings just in case

I had some brilliant advise given to me last year.
Always wear more layers than less, if you start to get to warm you can always loose a layer into a coat pocket/back pack or locker. If the waether turns then you have it to put back on if needed.
I had a bloke on my ski school last year that was sent to go dress properly by the instructor as he had a tshirt on under his jacket. The wind chill at the top of the mountain was -38. soft sod would have frozen...
have fun you will love it,Jamie
