Could be your skis are draggy...
Tucking in clothes can change things vs a suit too

I would be really interested to hear what other coachy racey types have to say on that tucking weight distribution topic.
And more topix:
I am really really enjoying watching new straight-ski gs...those old power moves are back in...the big upweights, the big steering pivots, the driving carves. Tomba Girardelli stuff. I love it!

Fun vid from last year while you're waiting for the second downhill.
Course inspection with Aksel starts at 7:26.

Yes the wind was really strong. It was also a tail wind, the last few guys down the course we almost landing on the flats on the last jump.
The race would not be official if they did not run 30 racers, so they pushed the limits and ran a few more racers to get to 30, and then called it quits.

What an interesting anomaly...
A bunch of those guys got 6 runs on the streif. That’s some valuable experience.

“ Urs Kryenbuehl suffered a concussion, a fractured collar bone and knee ligament damage while Ryan Cochran-Siegle sustained a "minor cervical 'spine' fracture" on Friday during the World Cup downhill”

Yeah, that Urs wreck in particular was, like, grotesque lucky to be alive stuff.
I watch most wrecks again to kinda see what happened. That was one of those you don’t want to see again.

You definitely needed an anti-jinx for that one. So bummed about gorges injury. Compound fracture of tibial plateau while skiing down the mountain after SG was canceled. Fluke injuries suck. Positive vibes sent her way. And good luck to Breezy

This season has been crazy.
Men's Slalom has been bonkers. The second run 30 - > 1 has thrown a monkey wrench in everything. Courses breaking down, whether ruts or getting chippy. Not super tech slopes but some interesting sets.www.dpsskis.com

formerly an ambassador for a few others, but the ski industry is... interesting.
Fukt: a very small amount of snow.
