Courchevel Air Show at The Summer Ski Jumping World Cup
Thanks to Snow Retreat for the pic from The Summer Ski Jumping World Cup event taking place today and tomorrow in Le Praz. Lots more than the jump too with air show displays, acrobatic high wire, fun fair, Falconry displays, base jumping and of course the beer tent…
The Ski Jumping is pretty spectacular too with men & women taking part and landing on long, wet astroturf type material with a loud smack as the skis hit the ground. Only for the brave (or daft) real men and women going hard…
Great video here including a helmet cam shot to show what it’s really like:
