I was never really a free styler, so been asked tomorow to bring a transmitter probe and averlanche shovel was a slight hint that it wasn't going to be right down my street.

After two days of training with the ex top Italians women racer I'd of been happy tucking down black runs and feeling my quads burn!

Instead I roled up with my racers helmet and skinny racing skis nice and early, to see keen freestyles awaiting sounded like a pretty crazy adventure.

It's safe to say I was Scared, going almost straight down unmarked runs miles away from any piste!

We eventually came to a holt, body's everywhere I decided to look up thin don't think I'll forget the sight for as long as I live! (Photo attached)

So the day ended and the weekend is here, I've learnt a lot over this last week, I can still go fast and look good, although when the snow gets a bit thicker its not quite as glamorous! Switzerland is expensive and ALWAYS check the price label, 4 pound for a water and 15 for a salad, I won't be making that mistake again!

rob James and Simon are the group I spend the majority of time with and I think we are going for a drink tonight. Nothing big though, my bed seels the far better option.
