Injuries of the last weeks

posted: 2009-04-04
As the quality of the snow starts to degrade so the chances of catching an edge and the number of injuries increase. In the past couple of weeks people have been dropping like flies. Powder white have lost Alicia and Emily, both of whom blew their knee ligaments out. Amy(TJís) dislocated her elbow while coming down the tricky Verdons colouir.
The sun has also caught some people out. The right side of Frankís(Kaluma) neck is now resembling a well cooked lobster.
After wearing a vest top while racing on Wednesday Ben(Ski Higher) was left with a very red V on his chest. Team mate Rob finished the day with an interesting red imprint of the pair of fish net tights.
Off the piste Chris(Jump) perfected the alcohol affected face plant to concrete manoeuvre resulting in 4 stitches to the forehead and some sore ribs.
