This said, Didier is a much better skier than I am and although I put that on the account that he's much bigger, it's true that I have yet to win the opening GS in Soelden. He's paid to ski on Head, I still buy my Dynastar and Scott skis and I can't twirl my skis as well as he does when I step out of them; however, the obvious place where I have a distinct advantage is that I'm almost twice his age, but I won't brag about it. In terms of special skills he's almost as good at carving meat with a cleaver than sheer ice with his skis; he was trained as a butcher and me as a watchmaker (I still can't make good times, even at training,) but aside from these trivial details, there's almost no difference between the two of us...
