Yep, about a 25 second shuss down a fairly steep red run.  

Just spoken to a mate and maybe Les Arcs next year

I clocked 53mph skiing and though I'd done well.... 71mph must have been very scary.

71mph  I believe that as much as I believe an RS300 did 25knots or what ever it was ...

When will people realise that the max speed output of GPS deveices is subject to errors ...

Possibly as holding the tiller extension over your shoulder might take the crew's eye out (the bloke on the wire). Whilst sitting up the back of the boat with the crew behind you,  it would be safer to helm using the tiller bar instead of having the stick in the air .

Which is why I put the log in showing 67mph for a couple of seconds....
