SNOW!

The lack of snow over the past few weeks has meant the camera has stayed in and the piste has been riden a lot. A few of the Verbier team went over to St.Moritz for the FWQ and the snow was much better but still not amazing over there! It was my 1st competition against Chris Southwell (ranked No2 in UK). It was a good day with good conditions and a lot of top riders. Verbier on a whole did well with a couple of the girls finishing quite high and the Verbier snowboarders (Christoffer, Mike, Dan, Chris and myself) finishing 5th, 6th, 9th, 14th and a poor 23rd by Chris Southwell.

I tested out a new FURLAN Snowboard last weekend and found myself very much enjoying it!
If you see them about give them a try!
Have a look at the website www.furlansnowboard.com
