Grinds

Thursday I was skiing at Callaghan Valley when I ran into Zach Caldwell with a fleet of skis laid out to test. "Hey Caldwell," I said, "it's good to know you're out testing skis!" He looked at me like maybe I was a little bit daft and said, "of course, that's what I do every day."

It is very reassuring to know that Zach's out every day at Callaghan testing and developing grinds. And has been all winter long. And will be until the snow's gone and then again next winter. I think that the US Team will have the fastest skis at the Olympics. Not only because Zach's working on grinds but also because our waxers are phenomenal. We had great skis at World's this year and the conditions were very whistler-esque. It's good to know that at least one aspect of the race equation is going to be perfect... now I just have to get my part taken care of.
