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 :-)

Anyone recall this clip - from 2001 world champs in st Anton
 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead

Not sure if this is correct forum but was forwarded this clip the other day showing a Chinese skier taking part in a slalom event at the 2001 world champs at st Anton......you would have to admire the guys persistence but I would think the average snowHead here could do this course in a better time...according to the commentators he didn’t even have the correct skis on...?

Just thinking was this a ‘special needs category’ comp or was it the main slalom event.....the commentators definitely don’t hold back with their sarcasm........ski hire shop saw this guy coming etc etc

Aww. Poor guy.
Took me back to my first ever race on plastic as a schoolboy.
It was a team slalom & my exuberance out of the start gate meant I missed one of the early gates. Having had the importance of a team finish drilled into us on the way to the event, I duly climbed back up like Win-Jack did and completed the course.
What I didn’t know was that in that race, there was a prize for most improved skier over the two runs, so I came home with a new boot bag for my efforts.
Result!

In what way are they the wrong skis. He is on Atomic GS skis from around that time.

Under current GS race rules you would be disqualified if you come to a complete stop or if you get any help from a course worker. There is also a minimum standard for entry.

@rjs, the commentators said he was on the wrong skis. They said he was on downhill skis and suggested someone get him a pair of slalom skis before his next run.

Helps if you watch it with the sound turned up. wink
