Overnight the sand blowing over from the Sahara turned into a real sandstorm – but when it cleared up that didn’t stop us from going out and taking advantage of the changed conditions…
It’s amazing how rapidly the seasons change in Tignes… 
Nice powder turns… 
Photo of a poster – nice race training conditions. 
This of course is really in Namibia and on small dunes of only 80m height. They go up to 350m in some parts with a 45° slope. There are as many different kinds of sand surfaces are there are snow surfaces. Hard wax is used on the skis. Current speed record is about 60 km/hr.
