Noooo. On a snowboard I would likely break my neck!! At least on skis it would only be my legs :blackeye

Just picked up a cheap (£40) Freesat HD box from eBay the other week - The flats in which I live in, have a standard socket for a communal sat dish on the roof, so it's just a case of plugging it in...

Watching the events in full 1080 HD is stunning - The luge / skeleton bobsled are out of this world, and the skiing events look fantastic too... :)

Have to say, pretty impressed with BBC HD TV coverage, so far... :thumbsup

Either, or both, could crawl all over my skeleton :D
