Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Bode draws no. 30 after bib ceremony no-show.

Much to the demise of the thousands of Bode groupies that were hoping to catch just a glimpse of him at the Lauberhorn DH bib ceremony, he was a no-show. He will start number 30 instead of 27 for Saturdays Downhill in Wengen, Switzerland. Earlier on Friday, he failed to get a DQ reversed after straddling a gate near the finish of the slalom portion of the Super Combi event. He was leading the field by 1.11 sec at that point.

... which suggests that thousands of Bode groupies dropped dead, Jacques!

Could you check on that, because it deserves a screaming headline.

Yes, it was quite a carnage so we decided to join him for a beer and a laugh at a secret little watering hole down in Lauterbrunnen. I think maybe 3rd or 4th tomorow depends how bad the hangover is.

Jacques, you're back!

So, more disrespect from that petulant child. Now he's disapointing his fans too. Don't tell me, he had to get back to his camper van and couldn't be ars*d to get back on the train. Sulking about his DQ. The straddle, by the way, was absolutely clear to anyone watching and the slo-mo proved it - my granny could have coasted in from there and win it. Did Georgio Rocca complain about his DQ? I doubt it, he's a professional.

No, no, not to worry John. He only does that before slalom events. Downhill is much more dangerous....and then there is the recent media blitz and the fans to think about (keep them guessing you know), absolutely not, he'll be in fine shape.

Is that the one on the far side of the village, heading away from the valley, you go round the back of a restaurant, and up steps along the side of the building?

Actually it's the village below Wengen. It was magic. We wore disguises and took the train down which was empty. We pressed our noses and bare bottoms against the windows to the delight of the fans heading up to Wengen.

Jacques, yeah, I mean in Lauters - get off the train, turn left, and go along that road. When it turns left, you go straight on. The bar is about 150m along there, on the right, behind a restaurant.

Bode did the same no-show in Chamonix last year and got docked the start positions. Getting a bit fed up with him to be honest - He'll end up skiings answer to Gazza - the flawed genius (Though I admit they are poles apart, no pun intended Smile

Just watched the SC from Wengen and thought the coverage was excellent with things like candid clips in the start and finish area, Raich & Walchhofer chatting, Bode looking miffed etc. Often you don't even get a view of the winner at the end (As happened when Defago at least thought he'd won in Val)

Didn't look to be many in the crowd though - presumably a work day in Wengen for the locals but I'm sure we'd all be chucking a sickie if they decided to hold a FIS round at Castleford one friday... snowHead

Does Bode care about his fans ? My wife has emailed the Bode website so many times in a year ive lost count just to get an autograph but with no luck Confused (maybe they didnt want to pay the postage to send it over the pond Laughing )

Chris Brookes, Doubt he has anything much to do with the website, but he's the guy who signs the most autographs of all the racers at events as a rule...
