Been pretty slack at getting the pics and blog up this last week - travelling and working makes it hard but i have been busy and there are lots of exciting projects in the pipe-line for Ambition in the future!!!
Anyway the end of last week saw the team train a fair bit down the Stelvio race piste before heading off on Saturday for Les Crosets/Champery. Since arriving we have had brilliant conditions; clear, cold and the snow is actually pretty solid for once. Considering the rumours going around last week about the races being cancelled we have been pleasantly surprised.
Yesterday saw the team get another slalom day in which they were very pleased about - Imi Taylor and Roy Steudle, standing out during 2nd the timing session as the ones to beat - with some of the best skiing i have seen from them in slalom.
Today we ran a GS timing session and it was one of the best days i have had coaching this group - with almost everyone looking confident and getting faster throughout the day. Ellie laid down some awesome runs as the girl to beat today and Roy and Tom battled it out for the top spot with Barney right on their heels.
GS race tomorrow, Mel is setting 1st run...... and I think we are ready!!!!!! (if not Chris is certainly ready to dish out the punishments - see below).
