Ed Leigh, Ski Sunday

Career:

Snowboarder, editor White Lines snowboarding magazine, co-presenter Ski Sunday and High Altitude.

It is less than a month until the Winter Olympics start. What will you be covering?

I’ve got six or seven events to cover. If I get to see the skeleton in Whistler and ice hockey final in Vancouver I’ll be a very happy man. The ice hockey is going to be insane.

Ski Sunday

Just catching up with Ski Sunday on BBC iPlayer – this is Graham Bell (ex-Winter-Olympian) zooming down the Pista Stelvio, one of the most challenging DownHill runs… having seen footage of many world-class athletes wiping out on this run, Bell (as apparently is legendary) grabs a video camera and skis one-handed down the run! Awesome to watch…

“Jack Osbourne and his Adrenaline Junkies were back in town and what better sport to separate the men from the boys…Powerboat Racing with Sarah Donohue!! My phone rang and before I knew it I was off to Dubai to meet the Adrenaline Junkies and get it all set up and underway. Jack himself, Hollywood Sex Symbol Jesse Metcalf, Joanna Page from ‘Gavin & Stacey’ and good old Reggie Yates the Radio 1 DJ!

These were the celebs about to find out what real adrenaline felt like. This was no bungy jump or heli-swing. This was 120mph in a boat that on reaching optimum speed is weightless, a power-to-weight ratio that supersedes all others like it, and acceleration better than Class 1. The celebs were about to dive head first into the world of X-treme Catamaran Racing…the X-Cats! “
