Fantastic News. I was in Morzine for Martin Bell's 6th, which was too long ago. Lets hope a few more holidaymakers can have the excitement of seeing a Brit getting a top finish this season.

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

“I’ve seen a total change in the British team in my nine years,” he says, “from what was a total focus on the Bell brothers and everybody else could just scrap for what was left, to it being a proper-run programme with things you wouldn’t have dreamed of back in the days when I started out. But I’ve seen it in British skiing time and time again. It might take us a little longer to get to the top, but it happens. Right now, British skiing is respected all over.” |

What happened to the Bloke that cocked up the road jump, wiped out the gate and ended up in the safety fence?
He was air lifted to hospital but I've no idea whether he's alive or dead

From Eurosport:
Quote: |
French skier Sebastien Fournier-Bidoz crashed heavily after a jump during the race and had to be lifted from the slope by helicopter.
The Frenchman lost consciousness for a few minutes but a team spokesman said later his injuries did not appear to be serious. |

I was a bit disappointed to see Channel 4 repeatedly show Fournier's crash, including a couple of times in slo-mo when he was knocked unconscious. Not everybody watches DH for the crashes, and I find it a little distasteful.
