UPDATE FROM HARRY HANCOCK (Feb 07)

Skiing is all good I have been going down to Stoke as much as possible though I did get a broken thumb which wasn't much fun!

I have learned alot lately. I have done some switch 270's on the Gas pipe sex changed then 270's off. I am working on my 450's on and off really hard.
