Fanny Smith

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the “Jan Anders Sladek Foundation” who’s help is making it possible for me to go to New Zealand and compete in the World Junior Championships. Skiing and Skateboarding will always be a passion for Jan, Michael and myself.

Everyone Skateboards in our family. Indiana Skateboards supplied me with two skateboards that I use for my training. Of course the whole family is trying them out. They boards are a lot of fun and great.

Fanny Smith selection  2010-2011. Fresh News. I have been selected as member of the National Team with Sanna Luedi for next year. With Guillaume and Jocelyn we will do the best we can to merit the trust that has been put in us.

Last week I was able to train technique with Denis Wicki and my school friends from Brig in Zermatt. Boy was it fun. I learned a lot. Actually it is fun you think you know a lot, then you learn a lot. This is  great.

Today I was invited to present my sport for the school children at pré fleuri. Great questions and interest on behalf of all of them.

On marche comme des fous c’est splendid. Premier jour deux étapes d’un coup “10hr” nuit a la belle étoile.

Puis! la météo devient capricieuse. 2eme jour  vent, soleil, brouillard, tonnerre, grêle et “tutti quanti”, nuit blanche.

Sac de couchage mouillé, chevilles tordues, mais une bonne douche chaude un bon repas puis on se retrouve au paradis. Il faut vraiment peu pour être heureux “the simple bear necessities of life” dixit Balou dans le livre de la Jungle.

C’est reparti 3eme jour meteo changente. On est a Vizzavona et partons pour le refuge l’Onda. Pour ceux qui n’ont pas remarqué nous faisons le parcours du sud au nord. La journée se termine par du vent et un peu de pluie, on finit au sec super.

Suite apres demain. Grosses bises a tous Fanny.

Le printemps est arrivé mes tests physiques aussi. Un peu plus lourde un peu plus forte. Pas si mal encore après une saison de ski. Maintenant on prépare le physique jusqu’en automne puis on refait les tests pour comparer. Manu Praz et Raphaël Faiss me suivent depuis un moment déjà c’est rigolo.
