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 :-)

Triple Olympic champion Jean-Claude Killy has stepped down from his role as executive president of the Organizing Committee for the 2009 Alpine FIS Ski World Championships, planned for his hometown of Val d’Isère (France).

Interesting...quite a history (non-skiing) that he's got. Wonder whether he'll be invited back (again)??

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

The FIS has frozen its 26 million euro contribution to the event and is actively looking at alternative sites in case Val d'Isere can't deliver.

This story seems to imply schaldming may be an alternative to val if they can't sort their act out. I used google to translate so may of mis-understood this story!

Well in that story the Schladming people are being pretty diplomatic and saying they won't even talk about taking over the event until Val d'Isere is definitely cancelled. Hans Grogl (organising committee president) did, however, casually mention that Schladming would be able to run a World Championships with one and half year's notice.

Meanwhile, FIS General Secretary Sarah Lewis, who incidentally spent some of her school years at Moutiers and speaks excellent French, will be travelling to France to investigate...

I thought you were against further development at high altitude?

In which case, presumably you don't want Sarah Lewis to know heads together in Val so that the builders don't actually go in?
