Breaking Snowboarding News almost We were in Lech in Austria on Saturday - No pictures, we left the camera in the car - and we spent four hours on the completely free practice slope! (while our friends paid 46 euro to go up the mountain and ski!) The piste was solid boiler-plate (fancy snowboarding term) and not at all powder, so when you fell over, some of those bails were bonecrushing. Susi says that I fall over very well and that I would make a good stunt man! It is top fun if incredibly exhausting and you get to wear all that cool snow boarding stuff like my Bad Lieutenant helmet (useful for when Susi tells me what I am doing wrong, I get to say "Sir! Yessir!") I have now successfully fallen off four mountains. My skiing score is better I have only fallen off one mountain - but what a fall - and proudly too, like lions!
