Poster: A snowHead

I have just looked at the start list and am curious as to why we have no-one on start? I cant believe our lads didnt qualify as there are racers there from Japan,Turkey, Isreal and Poland, any ideas?I was looking forward to waving my flag

Brilliant race. Cuche and Ligety were awesome in the 2nd leg. What a great way to get the season off to a start

Oooh, so do I!
As for the Brit situation, it's a complete scandal that they are having to pay to compete .

Just got back from watching this race - it was a great atmosphere again and really packed. Perfect weather and conditions. That long steep drop they come down after the 2nd transition is a black ice wall and is f**king steep. In places it reminded me of the Aiguille Rouge run in Les Arcs, except that does not have blue ice under its lovely snow cover.
Pity that Benni Raich couldn't nail a podium place but Sölden always seems to elude him and this year it was his worst placement 4th in the last three years, 5th this year. but a good basis to build on. I'm glad Ligety got a good final result - I like him both as a skier and a representative of his country, much like Darren Rahlves was and consequently overlooked by the media circus.
Fantastic weekend of skiing both watching and doing. Definitely started my season on the real stuff now - bring it on please!
BTW at the brand-new Tiefenbach Restaurant (i.e on the glacier), I served myself a huge plate of freshly made salad and had half a litre of appelsaft g'sprizt and only had to pay 7.80 Euros. I could not eat all I had served myself with (eyes bigger than ... blah blah blah syndrome!), so I feel it was really good value for money!
