The British Ski and Snowboard Federation
have gone firmly for youth in the new Great Britain FIS
teams announced today.
Including six teenagers in a total
squad of 18, yet still with nine featuring in the top 100
on the world ranking lists, it looks like a great future
ahead for the current crop of talented skiers and boarders.
The opening World Cup of the Northern
Hemisphere season (Giant Slalom Sölden, Austria - 28-29
Oct 2000) is just 10 days away. Many of the main races are
