Yup, Mike’s up there and destroying the old two man lifts (Combe and Mayentzet) and he’s sent us the evidence…

Yes, just as everyone is starting to trot out their shorts and get sunburnt, the weather has turned rather iffy and it’s throwing down snow.

Now, I’m in Austria right now, but the news from Verbier is snow up top but not in the resort. But I’m not too worried as there are forecasts for as much as a meter of fresh on the glacier here in Hintertux so a soggy Verbier doesn’t worry me too much…

UPDATE…

Yes, snow is falling in Verbier. I know, ironic, eh?

ANOTHER UPDATE…

Yes, snow is settling in Verbier… And Toby’s snapped it…

Yes, every year the lovely people at CK go on a trip somewhere (secret) and have a ski and a bit of a party. And somehow at least a few of us from Performance sneak onto the bus and join in…

This season the Swiss resort of Saas Fee was the lucky venue and the CK team didn’t disappoint…

OK, if you don’t care about the weather this is a dull 46 seconds, but yesterday there was a massive hale storm and the hale-stones were like marbles fired out of the sky so hard they hurt your head.

Anyway, I thought it was quite interesting…

Yes, there was a time when you could be fully certified as a ski instructor after two weeks. And the outfits were amazing – I want a one piece ski school suit…

Yes, the interesting evening that is the Performance team dinner was held last night. As usual, Toby got over enthusiastic and started arm wrestling the girls for cash. He was less amused when he was beaten. Twice. Well done Gina and Karro, and thanks everyone for a most amusing night…
