ANZAC Day and a long time between posts…
As ANZAC day draws nearer, I am reminded once again why i love the end of April. It is a day to remember the men and women who fought so bravely, and in doing so shaped the country we all love today. It is a day to be thankful and a day to embrace the traditions of dawn service and two-up. For me it is also a day to be thankful for what i do, i get such amazing opportunities to ski and represent our country and i can only hope i am doing it proud. For me ANZAC day is when i feel most proud to be an Australian. Please get behind our troops by sending a message to the troops on 044 SUPPORT on your mobile, or by posting your messages online at www.telstra.com/anzacday. And embrace ANZAC day with whatever you enjoy doing

A very snowy day in Vail
Unlike everyone else at the mountain we don’t get really excited when it snows..for racing and training we like the snow really hard and fast so today was a good day to take off.
