XC-ski training WE in Chaux-de-Fonds

Lada, Misha (our friend from London) and I (Evgeny) did some trainings this WE in Chaux-de-Fonds.
On Saturday we skied under the heavy snowfall that continued over the whole day
and made the whole Suisse Romand look white :)
Thanks to abundant snowfalls in the last week, the snow conditions were very good on Saturday with 25km of groomed tracks.

After the snowfall on Saturday track conditions became even better and Sunday was waiting for us
with very good tracks and sun. I managed to try all my new ski equipment and successfully finished the training week with long training session. Racing season starts next week. Starting to get my form ...

We had a first ski training on the first snow at Chaux-de-Fonds with an SAS candidate from Bern (Antti).
