First series of answers in!
Brave soul!
Amazing soul!

Great answers with a touch of humility!

Have not yet checked all answers but sure this is going to be one of the winners!

Must give prize to this soul! So for having sent first answers this soul his going to get that Ben and Gerry's product! However before I send this item,,I must get a "certified, notarized document which "liberates me" from all the things that will happen to this soul,,once men smell this product on some part of her anatomy!

Mike,
That is your problem! You are NOT a women! I do not know the "needs" of a women skier! All you men think about is to get on ski runs! Women,,"we" or "they" think of other aspects of skiing!
That is why women skiers will have an advantage on this quizz!

Even Jan and Davemac will have "problems" if they do not consult the "wiser" half!

The Greene example was just that! I hoped to given an example that would not steer participants away from main objective,,to pair A to B list!

Stop giving away clues to Gordieski! I know she is new skier but let her "discover" clues herself! That is they joy of winning such quizzes!!!

Now for that top right hand item! Think if you are with your girlfriend on this special ski trip (because men are not allowed) and she has met a great male skier! Off they go and you are alone in your room,,,,,,,,,,,,
I know for sure AJ would use this item! I know for sure Geordie ski would use this item!
Cata would never use this item! But then he is a male and his style of skiing is all out all day!
Mike's wife might use this item if she brought some "work" with her!
Bandit,,,,not sure about her on this one! Need to know what kind of skier she is and her "other" half!
Tony,,for sure he will never but never use such item on ski trip! Now for that lower right item,Tony should "see" that item right away! He is the type that has used this irem,,if not daily, then many many times!
Must stop!!!!!

Mike, Mike,,,,,
What sharp eyes you have,,,,,,

They do say " the devil is in the details"!

Does that mean you are not in the "race" for the jacket?

Too many jackets at home?

It would be a great give for wife,,or perhaps that book by CC!

So the Ben & Gerry item is solved,,,, I do recommend every skier to try at least once their product!

I hate to see people "suffer"!

Think, what is the most important point in that match item! List A! So you must find out all about those skiers in list A.

Then as you read all about those great women skiers or racers,,you will note one thing that "relates " to list B!

May I suggest also that you widden your Goggle search (not just reading),, but viewing! I may help some of you who do not know skiing history! Pictures are worth a thousand words!

I am sure DaveMac will get first item Nancy Greene since he is "older" and remembers who she is what she did and all opther related information about her! For you younger skiers you will have to "discover" her life, Like you will have to discover the saga of Spyder!

I have had so many "comments" about the picture that I must "help you"! What do you do when you go off on a vacation? You think of all the possible situations you will be in and then plan your clothing, tools, etc.... in reference to your potential needs! Be prepared is an excellent motto! Let it guide you!
Think what will you need on this future ski trip to Pavel's secret place?
All the objects will then be revealed!

Geordieski,

No you do not have to match ALL of A list to ALL of list B!

I am sure all participants have noted that there are more items in list B! There is a technical reason for this ,,but not important here!

List A MUST have an item paired to it!

Hope this helps.

Please feel free to ask such questions,,since it is my fauly not to have mentionned this aspect!

I hope you are all learning about great women skiers!

Well here they are ladies and gentlemen!

Enjoy them.

I will try to keep away but I can see that Mike has already "coached" some women on the "ask Pavel for clarifications" approach!
Good luck DaveMac on trying to beat these ladies!

Good luck Cata on getting this jacket!

Good luck Gordieski on your new jacket!
Good luck karen72 on viewing that first picture.

Above all enjoy yourselves!

See you on Friday.

Respectfully,
Pavel
