Ski racing - the slalom last weekend in Palisades Tahoe, won by Austria’s Manuel Feller. Both Dave Ryding and Billy Major qualified for the second run, unfortunately Billy failed to finish that run and made a mistake close to the top of the course and Dave ended up in 24th place. This weekend we have the women’s speed races in Kvitfjell, Norway and mens GS and slalom in Aspen, Colorado. The women then head to Are in Sweden, the men to Slovenia before everyone comes together in Saalbach, Austria for the World Cup finals from March 16-24.

Les Arcs had 81% commercial apartment occupancy in January compared to an average of 75% in France overall. More interestingly is the press release then states that the resort at 2,000 metres has 485cm’s of snow compared to 130cm’s at the same time last year.
