We had something of a dilemma today – skiing or flying. Both seemed possible and the Niviuk guys and Johnny were going back to Sant Pere de Rodes. In the end we decided to go skiing, not having been so far this week. Conditions were good and the upper runs beautifully groomed and despite it being 20C at the beach, it wasn’t slushy. Sunny and warm, although a little windy at the higher levels.

Geoff splatted on the last run, and nearly took out a kid. He worried about subsequent concussion, internal injuries, broken neck, lassa fever and ingrown toe nails until I told him to pull himself together. It seems the only lasting damage is a severe case of hypochondria!

See photos of today.

P.S. Johnny and the Niviuk guys had a great day at St Pere, getting several hundred meters above take off. Johnny flew for an hour and a half, landing sweaty, exhausted and exhilarated.
