Re: Official Skiing and Snowboarding Thread

That British Ski rep that died yesterday in Val D'Isere was actually from Meribel, a group of the guys he worked with were in a state yesterday, not that I blame them, horrible news.

Would post his name but they haven't released it yet.

You probably do. I don't know much about the THs but I'm generally impressed by McAllister whenever I've seen him. Would you say he'll overtake Court soon, (not that Court is poor on the LH) Careful now, don't want Grim to see that, apparently Paddy Mac can only scrummage well if he's cheating and ...

. Kidney isn't in danger of being sacked. He should be. He takes a group of talented players and gets them to play negative rugby with an awful gameplan.

Had a great day at Winter X-Games Europe yesterday.

Got to see some slope style but went for a ski all round Val d'Isere instead, then to the Folie Douce for the most expensive carlsberg in the world and then back to Tignes for the Superpipe final with Shaun White dominating.

Good day all in all.
