It’s the Winter Olympics so of course it's time to bring this clip back.

Day 3 skiing. The only times I fell was when I was helping others up. That feels like the right way to live.

Sarah Höfflin losing a ski on the takeoff. She was fine, but the look on her face in mid air ... plus she still got the grab! #olympics #ski #skiing

A skier has just left the lip of the kicker, in bright sunshine, and one ski is just coming loose. The cloud of snow on the lip behind her is testament to the edge that cut in.
Later in the same jump, she's coming round from a rotation, with a grab on the remaining ski, and is looking across at her rapidly departing left ski. The expression is a bit "WTF?"

More skiing today. A bit like the image below, but where the water was snow, and there was no jumping. Or sharks.

More skiing today. I'm not quite at For Your Eyes Only level, but I'm at least no longer a liability on the slopes (and Roger Moore had 4 years more years of practice when he did this...) I'm on day two.

Most scary skiing so far today (and that might be it for this trip) not helped by our very apologetic, and very hungover instructor not showing up till we were finished for the day. As a result, our first day on the "real" mountain was with a stand-in teacher who didn't know our abilities...
You guess the rest! No injuries though, and we're all recovering from the terror nicely.
