Red Bull Preparations

In the centre of Lausanne today. There is a crazy Red Bull event this week end in Lausanne, basically it's like Ski Cross except they use Ice skating shoes, not skis and hockey padding for protection and then race down a pretty steep and challenging parcours. It will be my first time so it should be a good laugh. If I'm really lucky, I can talk the organisers into giving me a photo/press pass.

5 years ago there were 40'000 spectators and this year there should be even more. Hopefully I'll get some good action shots, my camera permitting.

I think these two guys are part of the competitors by the look of their helmets.
