Skiers Sought To Ride London Gondola This Saturday

The new Emirates Air Line gondola in London has been attracting the attention of skiers and boarders.
The £45m project connects Greenwich Peninsula with the Royal Docks and was opened last week by Boris Johnson.
But it doesn't go to any ski slopes.
The team at specialist snow holidays travel agency Ski Solutions are concerned that as a result commuters using the lift may not know what gondolas are designed for and rather rhan wait five more months for the start of the main ski season, intends to get his ski gear back on and hit the new Emirates Air Line in London this Saturday to show London how real skiers use gondolas.
Skiers and boarders are welcome to join in this Saturday, 7 July 2012 at 3pm at the Emirates Greenwich Peninsula Emirates Cable Car Terminal, Edmund Halley Way, London, SE10 0FR
Please come in full ski kit – all of it! "Think the north face of the Matterhorn in a blizzard," says Digby.
There'll be an après party at the Fox Bar ExCel straight after the gondola ride.
