That's a good cross section of disciplines too.

We ran a trip there a few years ago, I didn't go but those that did came back with positive reports.
The geography means it gets more than it's fair share of bad weather. |

Talking of Pringles....  |

I watched an event in ADH a couple of years ago, nothing like the size of those jumps, but the racing was insane nevertheless.

Epic final. Well worth watch the whole thing on iPlayer.

Epic facial hair, with skiing to match!

I think poor piste marking and signage is true for most Austrian resorts, Mayrhofen was just as bad.
Perhaps we're just spoiled by the amount of thought and investment the French put in. St Anton isn't somewhere you go to cruse the pistes, just we had such poor off piste conditions that we spent far more time on piste than we would have liked. Something that amazed me was Arlberg have just added a link to Warth, but there's virtually no signage at all pointing the way. They've obviously spent a lot of money on the new lift but it's like they don't want anyone to use it! |

Much better conditions today's for the men's skier cross. Some huge jumps in the seedings runs. They're making it look tricky running one by one. Going 6 abreast is going to be interesting!
