Poster: A snowHead

Did anyone happen to see Austrian ski racer Rainer Schoenfelder streaking down the Lauberhorn at Wengen today? Apparently, they had an off day for DH training due to warm temperatures (10 C) so he decided to make the descent in the nude. According to his team coach, "I don't have any problem with nudity so he probably won't be disciplined, but seeing as it is a big world event, we might need to give him a talking to."

cathy, how can you tell whether he's wearing protection?

I've always thought that people who do this must really trust their friends to be waiting at the bottom with their clothes.

lampbus, now you're talking. If memory serves me, a certain Sarah Schlepper of the US Ski Team did a topless run and got headlines. Should be a seperate World Cup discipline... The Ladies Nude Combined... worth 1000 points for a win as opposed to the normal 100. That should ensure they all take part. Bet you'd all go out and get Sky+ then eh?

Hope he was wearing sun cream

Although they said it was about +10C - I wonder what the wind chill factor was and whether there was any noticeable! effect
