Last Week.
Congratulations to Hannah, Maika, Nick and Marek for representing WMSC and BC well at Canada Winter Games. Looking forward to hearing all about it.
Western Canadians was also happening last week at Red Mountain. We had several personal bests, Marlow(1st), Thea T (2nd 2x), Dreas (3rd), Lots of top 10 results for Kingsley, Dominic, Nicole, Kekai. We had some well run races; in some challenging conditions. And we had some epic powder in the afternoons.
Prior to this we had some awesome SG training, first with he FIS team, then with our U16 zone camp. We didn’t get our race in, but we did get an awesome powder day on the Sunday, and some really good GS training on Blackcomb as well.
