Hello peoples,

Just an update:

Jossi and I are sitting in our all-expenses paid hotel, getting chauferered around everywhere by drivers in Audi's if not Jon himself in his 500hp WRX, if you haven't seen photos of the jump, check out the freeskier website. It's the most perfect piece of construction I have ever seen. And despite the size, and speed (you are coming in to the jump at 100kph) its not that scary!

Its like living in a dream here! Living the rockstar life!

Jossi is absolutely killing everything he looks at! I am taking it safe. My bones aren't bendy like his anymore!

Also check out the photos of Jos hitting the enourmous 130ft table at the Candide Invitational last weekend. He was the first skier to hit it switch! And he had hit the jump about 5 times before Candide even stepped up to it!

More updates to come...

Jon's comp goes down on saturday night.

Reeeeeeediculous!

Well... I am eating my words now... haha

I broke my back on that "not really so scary" jump!

Wasnt ready for the mad compression when I was following 2 guys into it fast, and did half a backflip to my head!

I didnt want to try and land on my feet, as blowing my knee is my biggest fear, but instead tried to take it on my side - landed on my head instead!

I am very lucky to be even walking, and I got off lightly with a compression fracture. So I'll be skiing when the resorts open in NZ.
