Sort of.


If she ski`s like her father Tony no doubt it would have been just a fleeting glance :lol: He used to live in BKK i dont know if he still does.
I once met Gerhard Berger in a pizza restaurant in Soll,Word got around the village and the place was packed to the rafters.The mazarati was a big give away. He has a beautiful chalet on the piste from where he run`s his haulage empire.

Yes, I was in BKK at the time, in a bar called The Royal. Franz used to deliver milk on his skis as a kid, did you know that?

BTW, whats a mazarati?

What about Konrad Bartelski?

Here's that amazing run on one ski by Bode - he didn't acually manage to finish the run but still its amazing how long he managed to keep going! Check the speed near the end - over 80kph on one ski :!:

Wow! That is one of the best videos I have ever seen.
Even though you said he didnt make it, I was willing him on to finish, so close.
He even starts tucking: balls of titanium that lad!

Brilliant, even going into tuck position at times haha. He would still probably beat a lot of us on one ski. 8)
