The Fall is Here

Apparently this whole global warming thing that people can't stop talking about might actually be true..... In Tignes, France right now. I got here this past weekend and the difference between last year when were here to now is quite a bit... Its been a warm summer and apparently was +20 the week before we got here. Timing couldn't be better, the temp dropped below zero, sunny skies and the training conditions are hard glacier ice maybe a little to good. The skis only last one maybe two runs and they are dull. Everywhere else in Europe is not good with either no snow or too much snow. With the Solden GS opener fast approaching I have put all of my attention to GS and Im feeling good, skiing well and looking forward to the race! This weekend Johnny, Franky and I are going to train with Aksel and the Norwegian boys in Saas Fe, Switzerland. Should be good, looking forward to getting some training in with our Norwegian buddies.
