Apparently one of the skis that prince Frisp used on the day of his accident was found abput 2 years ago. The ski/snow manager of Lech shared that he is planning to contact the family when they are coming to Lech this month for their skiing holiday to hand it over to them. If they are not interested, hevplans to destroy it. See article (in Dutch) at NOS: https://nos.nl/l/2416947

I personally don't understand why after 2 years this is shared with the media instead of contacting the family shortly after it was found. I assume the family's friend and skiing instructor that they did ask whether this could be Friso's ski will have ways to discuss it with them and otherwisem it shouldn't be too hard either to find a means of communication.

What a weird story. "Ow okay, is that a Stöckli black-and-silver ski? Yes, that possibly will be Friso's... Eh... Well... Thanks for this ski."

I came across this article (in Dutch) about prince Friso who supposedly had a severe allergic reaction (to peanuts) at his brother Constantijn's graduation party, resulting in him being taken to emergency care at the nearby hospital.

Does this story ring a bell? It's new to me, so not sure how accurate it is...

Another article in the same TU Delft magazine cites prince Friso's own thesis supervisor. He states the it was well-known that the prince always had high marks (never had to do a resit) and he only just missed out on the requirements to graduate 'cum laude' (while doing two degrees at the same time).
