    I fell down the middle those three couloirs under the cable car in Courchevel a good few years back :D Lost a ski a couple of turns from the top and went down in record time on my arris. That's one of my 9 lives used up!

    i bottled it the first time out there many years ago after seeing a few people go down like you did Stevo, but forced myself to do it last year, steep in parts but ok after i kept stopping to pick out the best lines!

    It's not that tricky of you do a couple of turns, stop and repeat. That was the year when I learnt to adjust my own bindings though :lol:

    I thought you were doing it all yourself? It's the only reason I can think of for you doing all that masochistic roadie stuff the other day cos you need to get in training.
