Skiers
\n from six nations – including Britain – swapped their ski gear for g-strings
\n in Austria’s first nude skiing competition.<\/p>\n
Organisers said they were delighted after 84 skiiers braved temperatures
\n of 28 F to compete in the first Nude Ski Race, in Hochfuegen.<\/p>\n
Competitors were asked to perform two jumps for the judges before downing
\n a glass of schnapps and finishing the race with a five-point pirouette.<\/p>\n
Organiser Ernst Erlebach said: "Most of the skiers wore g-strings,
\n bikinis, swimming trunks or underwear. Five women even skied with bare
\n breasts."<\/p>\n
Authorities had threatened to pull the plug on the entire race unless
\n the skiers at least covered their private parts. Werner Kostenzer, head
\n of the local tourism board, said: "We need
\n to keep at least some decency. Nobody is allowed to ski naked."<\/p>\n
