Nice n' icy please

Dave Murray Downhill: “A true Olympic course. Whoever wins here at the Olympic Games will be the true champion. I can say nothing against this course. It has everything...it’s just amazing to ski here. But it is very, very difficult.” from Fall 2009 issue Full Story >>

Hoping for the big backyard win

“The neat thing about the Olympics is that you have to lay it out there and trust your abilities and go for it. You can win and win and win on the World Cup, but come the Olympics, it’s one run and anybody’s day.” from Buyer's Guide 2010 issue Full Story >>

On the heels of the most successful season by the Canadian women’s alpine squad in two decades, came double-barrelled news. Allison Forsyth, one of the mainstays of the Canadian program for a dozen years, was forced into retirement by her battered 29-year-old left knee that can no longer carry her down the slopes. from Buyer's Guide 2009 issue Full Story >>

Right Idea, Wrong Winter
If predicting next winter’s ski racing champions in the summer were a sweet science like, say, betting on quarter horses in Alberta, your humble prognosticator would have made a bundle the last two years mainly on quinella bets. Although I’ve now predicted the next female champion three years running (Janica Kostelic, Anja Paerson and Paerson again) in this offseason madness, I’ve faltered somewhat with the men, calling for Stephan Eberharter, Bode Miller and Benjamin Raich with results of Eberharter, Hermann Maier and Miller.

Canada's best from Greene to Grandi
Going into this season, his 12th on the circuit, Grandi had built a fairly convincing case that he could be considered Canada’s all-time best male technical racer in the 38-year history of the World Cup. His only real competition for that honour was the storied career of “Jungle“ Jim Hunter, the pioneer who paved the way for the Crazy Canucks back in the early ’70s.
