Pavel,

When I took this photo I thought - "I wonder what feedback I would get if I posted this on J2Ski?"

I didn't because I wasn't sure (or confident enough) in the community. However I think it would be an amazing development!

Now should I start with ellistine's Avitar or Mr Admin's for that matter ... ;)

Seriously, I think Mr Admin should consider your suggestion :P

Now back to (my) skiing, do you think I over pressured that last turn?

Go on then. Put me out of my misery. What's wrong with my avatar? )

You have the time it takes me to go and find another one....

P.S. Great image but what is that poll stuck out of the piste? I've seen it in a couple of your pictures.

Tino: A good point well made :)

I hope that if you look now it should be a "little" more reasonable :oops:

BTW, thanks for only criticising the image size ;) You are a gent!

believe me, I am in no position to criticise anything else about your picture. If it had been me in those circumstances, it would have been one great long streak down the middle with no turns, and a large headshaped indentation in the snow just of the shot at the bottom )

Oh and as for the stick - That's the final resting place of the last person to ask Dave Mac why he skis with his
hips and knees together
- I once tried to ski with my hips together and all I can say is that Dave is far more flexible than I will ever be ;)

Jan - all you needed to do was go back and put the gates in position, JUST inside your arcs and hey presto!! You're a "good skier"
