Here comes the snow...

So, it’s been 35c here in London for the last week and, strangely, my thoughts have turned to snow… We’re off to Saas Fee in September and I’m starting to do the ‘check the resort web cam daily’ thing. Having never skiied in Europe this early in the season it’s a bit nerve wracking. Still, Saas Fee has a good glacier and they are used to this kind of thing; so, finger’s crossed.

We’re doing a course with Warren Smith’s Ski Academy. Should be fun. The write up here has got me itching to get out there…

I wonder if I can convince Michelle to do the Freeskiing camp next year. I quite like the sound of going from never having been in a snow park to doing 540s off the half pipe in a week… ;) I expect my enthusiasm for such things is due to the amazing tricks that the vert skaters were doing on the extreme sports channel at the weekend… Perhaps I should get that Dainese Multi Sports Jacket (body armour) after all, these bones of mine aren’t getting any younger…
