Snow Delivery
Yesterday in Moscow there was held Parallel Slalom FIS Champions Cup. The annual event is carried out in Moscow already for several years, each year in November. The jump is a huge construction of 60 meters high, 37 meters wide and 210 meters long (195/120/690 feet.) But there is one question, where did they get such an amount of snow for the event?

It was so fantastic that The Discovery channel has made a documentary about her - “The Worlds Strongest Girl”. Since then each year her personal weight grew by 2 lbs each year (2 kg a year) but her lifting power increased by 25 lbs (11 kg) each year.
