Just finished commentating the Snowboard Halfpipe World Cup on @fissnowboard TV from Calgary (via Spalk).
I managed to get both a Cool Runnings and Eddie the Eagle reference in (And called all the tricks correctly, more importantly)
At 5am, I’d class that as a job well done 😮💨

Watching the @SkySportsF1 coverage of Hungary FP3 - Zac and Scarlett who are doing the F1 kids commentary one across brilliantly. Confident, clear and enthusiastic - fair play at that age!

Sounds pretty damn familiar!
Great to see @wsl supporting and backing their judges though

I might stop lugging around 15kgs of camera equipment on bike photoshoots.
This was shot on my iPhone 14, on 3x zoom and over the shoulder of the actual photographer, and it’s our most-liked post this year.
Our second most-liked photo? Also shot on the iPhone.
Madness.

“Play to your strengths” they said
Not sure what they had in mind when they asked me to lead the creative team.
But free Guinness? Sure.

Someone who’s been shaped by the snowboarding industry is about to start two non-snowboard podcasts. One about bikes, the other about triathlons and bike events.
That someone is me - wish me luck (and tune in when the new podcasts drop in the coming weeks).
It’s gonna be a ride

After the storming “success” of Brexit, I’m not convinced by any political statement that features the words “take back control”
Today we are introducing new laws that mean if you come to the UK illegally you will be banned from ever re-entering our country.
This is how we will break the business model of the people smugglers; this is how we will take back control of our borders.
ALT If you come to the UK illegally you will be banned from claiming asylum in the UK

Playing Eye Spy with some international friends in Tbilisi airport….turns out we Brits play the game wrong - everyone else uses colours as the clue rather than letters. Mind blown 🤯

Hell of a snowboard pipe final here at World Champs! Went right down to the wire in the 3rd run, and we had to have some discussions in the stand.
Glass of white in VIP to wind down - and yes the hat says ‘I pee outside’… #ThisJobIsAWSM

10 hours in this windowless container today for World Champs Big Air Qualification, some of it judging, but several hours on “hurry up and wait” status (or ‘weather delays’).
The good news is I think that qualifies us for the ‘extended day’ bonus under the new pay scale 🤔

Big Air Qualies days, where we run 2 heats of men and 1 heat of women, with the 3-run format are the longest days to judge.
225 runs to judge is a little bit mind-blowing 🤯

Having a ball out in Georgia judging World Champs
Slopestyle finals y’day were EPIC, and it was insane to witness (and score) @Mia_brookes making history. She caught us by surprise - we thought she’d go cab 12, we weren’t expecting the first ever 14…
Next: Pipe

10 judges all flew out of Munich together to the World Champs - 8 of us lost ski/board bags. Well done @MUC_Airport / @lufthansa - that’s a new record!
And the Chinese moguls team lost all 12 of there skis 😂
