Saw it this evening - would NOT like to try the old wooden skis with leather boots... Mr Pitstop does remember something similar when he was a mere whippersnapper, on his first ski trip on top of a mountain in America, wearing leather boots and 3 pairs of school socks: his big step-sister (an accomplished skier) by way of instruction, pointed and said: 'It's down there' and skiied off.
This would have been in the 1960's and he says ski bindings were a tad more sophisticated than those on tonight's programme, but not much :wink:

Also watched the Super G on the red button this morning.
Chemmy was heading for a really good time on the downhill until her mistake towards the bottom of the course. Bet she was very frustrated. Promising signs though!!

Great to have the show back. Graham B does a good job ~ he has improved a lot.
The thought came to me, as I watched Chemmy, ~ this feels the same as when I watched Martin, Graham and Konrad, all those years ago, two to three seconds seems a long way at those speeds. Not too far away from the top 15 though.
Errm,my first skis were wooden Elan Jets, screw in edges. Boots were double lace up, about an inch higher than those that GB wore!
There are those who might say, I haven't moved on much!
