Conditions: Fairly firm remanants of man made, some nice courdoury on the race course (for the first few racers)
At it again last night, all were in attendance. For the second time this season the race took place on Twister, a much 'turnier' course than FIS. We were there early to sign in and all started in the first ten pairs. Technical difficulties kept us waiting at the top a bit but were sorted out. The green course was quite a bit faster than the yellow for all of us. Chile raced first on the yellow but stepped out of his ski a couple turns in. Didn't see his second run but it seemed to go well. Charlie & I were the third pairing, he smoked me on the first run earning himself a bronze (and contributing 2.49 pts to the team total), I did a little better my turn on the green. A medal still eludes me however... Ga2ski and Scott were next: always fun to watch the competitiveness of a couple friends. Ga2 took the first run on the green course earning 6.18 pts. while Scott came across the line first his turn on the green - although because of the difficulty of the yellow course, Scott's first run (yellow) was used to earn us 3.65 pts. These guys are so evenly matched they’re right next to each other in the individual standings as well! BobR and Tree_skier was another good pairing - our two fastest racers. Again, whoever was on the green course seemed to finish first. Had fun watching Bob overtake Tree_skier on the bottom of the course. BobR was our biggest point earner with 7.25 pts for his run on the green. While Bob may have come across first Tree_skier's time for the first run on yellow was used for 7.11 pts. Add it all up and were in third place overall for Monday nights!
