Saw the post from Bode announcing Peak‘s return, have to say I did not see that coming and can hardly imagine they will be welcomed back with open arms. Saw Dav‘s reply too and the response to that will be interesting. Looking forward to hearing your take!
Bode was/is an amazing skier, but has also always been a kind of a narcissistic jerk. I’m not surprised at all.
I’m surprised that he didn’t use the passive voice while he was at it: “a mess was created…”.
