AZ Team Racing 2/27/06
Conditions: Cold, hardpack but surprisingly edgeable
The team put together another solid effort last night placing 6th for the night which kept us in 3rd overall. All but Charlie were in attendance. Bob's son Conner came out for his first turns since breaking his arm - a very strong young boarder. We all got there early and camped out at the top of the FIS course to run pairs 1-3. Ga2 ran on his Scotty Bob's since Tigger had abused his Karhus at the Telefest. Cool looking skis. Tree_skier sprayed Bob on their first run slowing him down a bit. As usual they both ran well enough to appear on the first page of results and earn us points. Scott edged out Ga2 in individual times (of course the tele handicap does wonders for Ga2's contribution to the team score) and Scott managed to make that tricky first gate :wink: . His second run Ga2 came out of one ski, threw it over his shoulder and proceeded to run the gates on one board
, took a little spill, continued again and triumphantly crossed the finish line pumping his ski in the air which got many cheers from the top of the course. Chile and I both had decent runs but felt we could have been better. I finally feel like I'm starting to get a clue about this racing stuff now that the season's almost over…
Apres always a good time. :beer: Chile had beers waiting for us, good man. Hope you're feeling better. Bob kudos for putting out a strong effort on minimal sleep, it was fun to see Conner out. Ga2 - there was a video, your performance earned much applause and a slo mo replay. Results seemed to take forever to come out
I won't be there next week. 3rd thorough 5th place has tightened up a bit, we'll need some good times to keep us in 3rd. Knock em dead boys.:uzi:
