Good point, didn't notice that it's the crew on the wire.

How'd you get that, a massive schuss??? We did a massive one o' them, then lost control and went flying offpiste, it hurt, a lot.

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

Just spoken to a mate and maybe Les Arcs next year  



One step ahead of you mate.......did that last year.  The actual speed run was closed off but I went down just beside it and got some real speed!!   Les Arcs is great.

Bearing in mind that top pro skiers are regularly clocked at >100mph I find 71mph from an amateur a lot more believeable than that RS300 figure...

Tornado_Alive,  is the jib fouling on the leeward spreader or is it just going round in the back?

Yes it is, the crew didn't let the jib off on the bear away, tut tut

The jib only needs to be let out a little anyway, but does very little off the wind on an 18.
