In this section we show you how you can care for your skis/boards to a professional standard and get them ready for competition. It's almost like looking over the shoulder of a ski technician on the road at the World Cup.
This year’s Swiss alpine championchips took place in Veysonnaz. The first downhill training on Monday had to be cancelled due to snowfall and a soft slope. On Tuesday, there was beautiful spring weather with warm temperatures. The races had to start early in the morning as the sun then was not yet strong enough to melt the snow. For the skiers and trainers, the morning started with breakfast at 5.30, afterwards they went to have a look at the course.
