Yes, sad news indeed there may be a few j2skiers who knew him as he had worked in La Plagne and Meribel as well.

That's awful news :cry:
That news article says he died because he skied into a snow cannon. I thought they're always wrapped in that orange padding in case anyone skies into them?

If you hit anything hard enough then your risk injury or worse. The chap who hit the safety net last week is an example :cry:

I read this on Radio Val D'Isere.
They used the words something like "striking the mattress protection" and that they do not know the circumstances of the sad accident.
It was on the piste Plan - which I think is a red down the front of Solaise.
Very sad .....

I skied that run in January.
Pretty bumpy and steep in places and some icy patches but certainly not an extreme piste by any means.
Just a stark reminder of the dangers of this pastime/sport.
