Hi there,

This is Guillaume Nantermod writing, Fanny Smith coach.

After winning the quali by almost a second and a half in front of Austrian rider Offner, Fanny won all her finals runs.

The big final was really tough, Fanny had a bad start, running the course in second position. She had more speed but could not pass as the Austrian. Offner was cutting the way. But in the second to the last bank Fanny decided to take her responsibilities and pass. It was really engaged but worked out!

Fanny said: “This is one of the best day of my life, everything went as planed” . Mission accomplished for her.

Now we are staying 10 more days here in NZ to train in a really good environment. We have a great half pipe, big jumps , start gates and a great course.

So Fanny is over motivated with this big start of the season.
Guillaume

New Zealand – Gold in SX at Last!

Fanny would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the friends who have made this possible.

Each Ski gets a number.

This was probably the most important day for our Stoeckli Skis. We did everything we could to select the fastest skis. A good days work on the glacier. I was happy and everybody was exhausted. We visited the Stoeckli factory a month ago with Walter and his team. My first experience in a ski factory. Everybody was great and I learned a lot.

Par ici ,non, par la.

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.
