Getting up at 7 in the morning on a Saturday, can you imagine. I can't, unless I have to. This morning I had to.
Little boy had a Super G race today, in our local resort. Course inspection from 8, race start at 9. The Super G races always start early. Super G is the 2nd fastest alpine racing dicipline (after downhill). Therefore, we want to get most of the race completed before the regular opening hours in the ski center.
I'm always a little bit anxous before the Super G races (and downhill), because of the high speeds involved. The kids love it, and it's not something they can do every day. It's feasible only in organized practise and races.
The race went fine, fortunately no crashes, and no injuries. Little boy's first comment after he crossed the finish line was: "I wanna do it one more time".
Tomorrow it's giant slalom. The race doesn't start before 11 o'clock, fortunately >:)
I took the pictura above today. It's right out of the start gate, since I assisted little boy when he prepared for the race, warming up, taking off the jacket an pants and so on
