you're right. The patroller did the right thing by pulling us over, we were going REALLY fast, well, you were at least. But he simply said "i just wanted to let you know you were going to fast, and it's too cold out here to get my pencil out", because, at the time, it was still probably -3 or so. That same day, when i mowed my friends sister over, the ski patrol guy said well i didn't see the crash so i can't do anything.
but ski999, i think even at WC downhill speeds, thats still within your ability.
