Ski Art Race Club

Fathers day 2010 and West Midlands Ski Association  hold their Grand Prix at the Chill Factore. Matthew M  was the only Ski Art competitor out of 150 taking to the slope. Todays single pole courses were set by the North West’s very own Olympian David Ryding and Benn Hall of Newcastle University. As you would expect from an olympic skier, Dave’s course was very technical. Matthew managed to complete both courses faultlessly moving from 13th to 10th of a field of 26 in his age group. The next challenge for our team members are the Club National and Inter Regional event at Gloucester next weekend. 

Hello

I have made it on to the inter-regional team. Has anybody else?

A slight drizzle did not deter the race team from enjoying a good training session on their first day of ski camp with Benn Hall, member of the English Alpine and Dry Slope Ski Teams. He put them through their paces with warm up and practice runs, giving each racer individual instruction to suit their level of ski-ing. Day 2 brought better weather and allowed us to dry out the gazeebo. The racers were joined by 1 or 2 new members who were offered a friendly welcome by our existing members. Today Benn set up a slalom course and guided the racers through the intricacies of tackling verticallese and big offsets. The 2 days have been very successful and the team are looking forward to another 2 day training camp with Benn in August.
