Thank you Dusty, a long time ~ I agree. Expert? I have a long way to go. I work all year studying technique, and when skiing, practise every day, and have no shame in tapping up those better than me.

You were in Niederau last week? I didn't realise, else we could have met up. I returned yesterday, after 3 weeks fantastic skiing, with a great group of friends for 2 weeks, and solo the final week. You will have had great skiing too, including 3 clear sunny days to end with.

My normal speed is on the 60kph mark, and about 65kph on the steeps/jump. Carrying the camera, speed was 50kph. Best speed was 69kph on 19 January this year. Most visitors would take 10/20 minutes, plus time if they stop.

Knowing a run well does help!

A bit of fun on the speed gun. The run is well used by several teams, in the week leading up to the Hahnemkam.
