 Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

@under a new name, do you do it all or just the downhill? Any tips for a first timer?

@moseyp, in recent years I've done the combined.
Scoop out the course.
Sort your accommodation early. (You are probably too late for Mürren itself).
Be fit - the uphill sections are always exhausting and can be barstewards.

 You'll get to see more forums and be part of the best ski club on the net.

And be aware that competition for places esp. if you haven't raced before is reasonably fierce.

I'll be there (to cheer you both on)

Got my entry in, just have to wait a month now to see if it's accepted
@under a new name, what do you ski on?

 And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

@moseyp, this year I will be on my rather old Völkl Racetiger SGs (201cms). Whcih are quite soft and skiable.
SG is increasingly the tool of choice, from observation. If you get a place, Eddy Abegglen will rent you some antique Salomon monocoque 218 DHs if you feel the urge.

Lets hope for a full race into Lauterbr' fingers crossed!

 You know it makes sense.
|
Well, it’s auguring well for it.
