a snowy update
well chix, if you read the snow report you will know that EVERY SINGLE RESORT is getting a very welcome dumping of snow! it started snowing yesterday and it's going to continue well into next week!
excited? just a bit !!! Nat and I are up at Buller this week and it's pretty wild and windy out there right now. most of the chairs are on wind-hold :( but the wind is blowing the powder stashes all over the place, so there will be some nice skiing through the trees when it's all over :)
which means that the 2nd CHIX SESSION is going to be a whole lot of fun ! are you planning on joining us ? if so, drop us a line either here in the comments section or on our facebook events page here, or you can email us at chickswithstix.skiing@gmail.com
in other very exciting news overnight, the IOC [International Olympic Committee] has announced that slopestyle will be included at the next winter games in Sochi Russia 2014. woo-hoo !!!
that's pretty big news for Australia as we have 2 of the best slopestyle skiers in the world right now: Russ Henshaw and our very own CwS coach Anna Segal who is currently FIS Freestyle World Champion, a title she won over in Park City Utah earlier in the year [check out this chat I had with Anna straight after her win]

Anna wins !
so happy for our very own Anna Segal who won GOLD at the inaugural slopestyle event here in Park City.
I managed to have a quick chat with Anna after her awesome win ! we were so excited and Anna was still a bit shell-shocked but totally elated.... after this she was heading off to ring her mum.....

ANNA takes gold !
those prayers must have worked last night, because today Ms Anna Segal just wrote herself into the history books, by winning GOLD in slopestyle at the FIS Freestyle World Ski Championships !
it was soooooo exciting !
Anna slid into top place with her first run.... and there she stayed ! despite the best efforts by the best female skiers in the world, Anna took gold for Australia ! and she was pretty stoked with this extra special win......
"today wasn't about money or sponsors or points - today was about skiing for my country..." Anna told CwS.
and that is an important point - because slopestyle is being seriously considered for inclusion into the next Olympic Games - roll on 2014 !
Annas’s run was ......... a lipslide on the down rail, a blind 270 out of the a- frame, a disaster on the flat down box and 180 over the bonk feature. On the jumps she did a switch 540 into a huge 720 mute grab and finished off with her patented flat- spin 360.

Anna at the World Championships
so today was day one of the FIS Freestyle World Skiing Championships [#FFWSC11 is the hashtag for those of you on twitter] and our very own Anna Segal has made it through qualifiers and into the finals!
we are so proud of her.......it's a tough field out there with the absolute best of the best "slopestylers" in the world throwing it down!
this morning was a very brisk minus 18 and the event was delayed by about an hour.... the temps made the snow a little sticky and the course a little too slow which is kinda dangerous... these competitors need to go fast and get high !
Anna is on tomorrow (Thursday) at 9:30 am. thats 3:30 am Friday morning in Australia. so say a little prayer before bed tonight gang....
