Some of the gravity defying turns, at full speed, they put in this morning make for breathtaking viewing. <br /> <br /> If you missed it, the highlights are on Eurosport tonight at 11.15pm. https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/13738/130870.page https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/13738/130870.page Sat, 26 Jan 2013 18:31:06 GMT The course is absolutely the scariest. I have stood on the course after a race, and it was a BIG MISTAKE! It was like greased glass, and steep, step, steep. <br /> <br /> I went over to Kitz for one of the practice days this week ~ same speed as the actual race, at no cost, and without big crowds. <br /> <br /> I have met/been involved with a couple of previous Hahnemkamm winners, and they are dead straight regular guys. <br /> <br /> The Norwegian and Canadian teams were training here in Niederau on Wednesday ~ frightenly fast ~ but really friendly. https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/13738/130883.page https://www.j2ski.com/ski-chat-forum/posts/preList/13738/130883.page Sat, 26 Jan 2013 21:25:28 GMT
