Solo ski day on Valentines Day for me. Is that pretty sad?
Whatever, sometimes its nice to just spend the day lapping the slopes at your own speed and going where you want! Still getting the milage and ski fitness back after a bit of time off between January and February.
Oh and my ski tracker computer said I hit 257MPH…. pretty sure thats wrong.
Another great day on the mountain!!

Now it these time to Take I’ve come for a solo ski today just me on my own awkward cuz it’s actually Valentine’s Day so uh I don’t know is that pretty sad coming to uh the ski on your own on Valentine’s Day yeah just a cheeky Wednesday on the slopes all by myself but I hadn’t realized actually
More annoying it’s uh it’s the Austrian half D holiday so um yeah it’s pretty busy it’s pretty pretty busy and we’ve had pretty terrible snow and also really warm weather over the last 3 weeks I’m going to say it’s got cold again now uh but there’s been lots of rain and so
Like the snow gets kind of crystally it’s like sugar and then obviously you have like where the the uh the Piston bull is compact it becomes quite solid and icy so you have like this ice with sugar on top so yeah it’s not the best but you know it’s least it’s got cold
Now we’ve got some snow forecast for the next few weeks which is good but yeah today dealing with the crowds uh and just getting some miles on the skis now and make sure I uh hit the magic number of days on my uh season pass yeah I’m
Going to see how far I can go today I’m just in flacka vinkle right now I’m going to try and track over towards vagr and alpendorf and just stretched my legs a bit today so yeah we’ll see we’ll see how far I get of course because uh you
Know when the when the runs are this busy the lift cues get pretty long so it’s not as easy to just uh lap the resort as it might be on a quiet today but yeah so going to talk you through a little bit of a voice over for once mix
It up a little bit headed over to the top liner section of uh snows space salsburg this tasty little black run don’t know the name of it but I really like it it’s pretty fast pretty steep at the top and usually gets a bit bumpy but
The snow is usually really good cuz it’s pretty high up you get some speed it’s not too tricky nice little run to do decided to head over to the off piece section just to the right of that run and try do a little we can call it off
Piece it’s just really ungroomed and a bit uh bit bumpy not proper off piece but nice little run decided to go back again just I’m just trying to test the knees out at the moment haven’t really done any uh any proper skiing on the bumpy stuff with this knee brace on so
Just giving it a bit of a go it was uh a little bit sketchy at some points got a bit too much speed maybe not that confident had to put some speed checks in and then you know every now and again you hit a Little Rock Drop That You
Don’t See which is uh always fun here just trying to ride the bumps out really and not put too much pressure on the knee but you know it was kind of good I kind of enjoyed it like felt like I got a lot of confidence from doing that um
It’s nice to just let your skis run sometimes on these these piece and and get some turns in uh I wanted to head back now actually to the fly motor area there’s this cool little cat truck that you can go on I love it when the trees
Kind of tower above you like this especially when they have a little bit powder Sor like they do now just looks so sick cruising along I’m actually trying to put the camera in the shadow little bit of a filming secret so you get a cool flare I think about these
Things uh fly moart run blue run that goes all the way down from the top of the fly moart lift all the way to the center of B gr I love this run it’s super wide super fast the snow here is a little bit janky you can see it’s kind
Of icy and hard with this sort of th and then refrozen snow on top which is a bit like sugar a little bit like the snow you get at the indoor uh fridges you know if you’ve ever been to one of those indoor cold rooms and they have a ski
Slope in them snow is always a bit like that freezes and then THS and then free yeah but you know it’ll do headed over now to um the g-link and this takes you across the Valley from the flying Motes outside to the alpendorf side of vrine
It’s one of those cattle lifts you know it’s not a repetitive one you have to wait a while so never my favorite lifts to get on always have to bundle in with a load of people and typically you get there you feel your boots are too tight
Which is a bit uncomfortable but it’s not the worst lift takes about 10 minutes uh just a bit of a faf really decided to put my skis on in the middle of the lift Q because uh well it was busy and probably annoyed quite a few people doing that at this point I’m
Realizing the weather is pretty janky over here it’s gone all gray and yeah overcast not the nicest probably should have stayed over where it was nice and sunny on the other side of the valley I love putting the camera on this 360 pole you get a great view but the only
Problem is you have to keep one hand still so like you can see that one hand is kind of doing semi-normal pole plant and the other hand has to keep dead still so always feels a bit weird to to ski like this um but you get some good
Shots from quite like it this is a nice little red run that comes all the way down from the top to the last lift before you get to the top of B and off oh I’m just about to have some lunch that I’ll throw back to pee in the video
What you got to say buddy finally got to top of arendorf I think it’s called bit of a bad move really because uh the weather looks not as good here as it was over in uh V gr and fla but a nice view though I’ve got
This nice little seat to sit on I’m going to grab my lunch I got myself a little picnic my labor Casto Red Bull to see of mark thank you Mark for always keeping you supp red bll look at that if you’ve not had a labor Casto it’s like meatloaf or spam for the
English within like a little bread and a bit of mayo it’s good day so far yeah the weather’s really nice and flat out sun came out snow Snow’s weirdly really good at the top or it’s obviously snowed last night but you go through a definite Snow Line where it
Changes to this sugary stuff again so I guess try keep high if you can nearly 2:00 now yeah I’m going to play it safe I think cuz I’ve got to get two pretty big lifts back like gondle type Valley lift uh to get back to the car see how
Long it takes me probably shouldn’t be that long and the quees don’t seem that bad now people seem to have left or gone off the mountains for like at pre really so yeah we good Voice [Applause] A Hey A Not a bad day not a bad day at all 22 miles it’s not bad it always amazes me how um how fast you can go apparently my Max Speed was 257 km that’s wrong I’m pretty sure sure that’s wrong love a little solo day ski always good to just push yourself and
Get as many miles in knees feeling good I do need to remember to un do the brace after I’ve skied because sitting in the car it does tend to Lop off blood circulation a little bit so it’s like taking your boots off at the end of the
Day you know oh you just get kind of like a little rush of blood back into your legs what a beautiful piece of equipment this is I don’t know whether it’s 100% like physically helping me or 50% physically helping me and then 50% mental that I sort of know it’s there
And can rely on it but you do feel it every now and again but I mean I’m skiing 70 80% of what I used to be able to the only real thing I can’t do is jump and that’s I could jump I can’t land so um bit of self-preservation I
Have to do but yeah always good to get another one in the bag another ski down the hill catch you next time peace maximum dce N
