Mush...I never missed a Ski Sunday since it was launched in 1978, until the early 90's, when I stopped skiing myself. I have fond memories of cheering on the likes of Stenmark, Klammer, the Crazy Camucks, the Mahre Twins, etc, etc.
I now live in Switzerland and within a short drive of most of the ski slopes and I have never considered taking up the sport.
Nothing about is appeals to me ....Don't mind sitting at the bottom of the slopes and enjoying a drink in the sunshine however :-)
