Baksteen 84 #51 December 23, 2008 Well... like I said last year, I'm lucky to land on the right planet, let alone next to my skis. But once I've returned from landing off I guess I could do a grand slalom - if you don't mind me missing a few gates.. No, all jokes aside, I need to improve both skills before I dare to show myself in any kind of competition, let alone an international one. I'll not be the Eddy the Eagle of Paraski - yet.

JohanW 0 #53 December 23, 2008 The Edudie the Eagle position is already taken - one of the guys on the team had one day of indoor experience on skis before competing last year. He is taking a miss on the first two World Cups for training before going to the World Championship again though. Methinks you worry too much. Nobody minds us not winning. We're just there as the life of the party, anyway. Johan. I am. I think. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JohanW 0 #55 December 23, 2008 Exactly! Make me look good! Errrr, well, relatively. OK, OK, I don't have a snowball's chance in Hell of looking good besides you. But paraskiing is fun! Johan. I am. I think. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
