Dashing through the snow

Saltwater Blues is in Switzerland and ventures out to the ski slopes.

So there I was on the sledge hurtling down the slope at God knows how many miles an hour, which was fun … till you came to a bend. The instructions were simple enough — to turn right put your right foot down, to go left, the left foot. If only it were that simple. Coz you gotta know just how much and how long to put your bludy foot down. A slight miscalculation and you’ve swayed too much to the side and before you know it you’re lying face down in two feet of snow with your sledge over you or under you or half a mile away from you.
