Well it’s that time again when Steve goes off to break some legs but somehow always comes back intact. This year (the 6th time) he thought he’d actually be safe and buy a helmet to wear, which turned out quite useful – as he lost his balance and fell off the top of a halfpipe and landed on his head. Nothing broken but a sore neck for a few days apparently.

The resort was Les 2 Alpes in france and it snowed every day during his visit but it was just a tad cold. -10 in the resort, -23 at the top, with a wind chill of around -30! The snow was good but with every black run moguled extensively this resort is quite geared up for the skiers out there. Also many of the red and blue runs had long flat areas which also arent a favourtie for the boarders. Having said that the snow park, boarder cross and halfpipe were excellent fun although high up and very cold if it happened to be a windy day!!

The back flip picture shown does hold a secret though which he didn’t want anyone to know, but here goes anyway – there was a big inflatable the other side of the ramp for practicing….. oops sorry Steve…
