Last Week.
We were back in the training centre after what felt like a very long time, and with the entire team back together; after a period that had us spread out for various events and races.

We had multiple training environments all 4 days, with varied sets, slopes, and conditions. We pulled off two successful race simulations both Saturday and Sunday, some good skiing, and changes in our typical leader board. So, congratulations to you all for bringing the intensity, and for taking some risks.

Another great jump session in the Park (thanks Dave), and bump session as well. In both cases we saw amazing adjustments and improvements as you all quickly became comfortable and relaxed after some shaky first runs.

Great teamwork and turnout(19) for the escape rooms, lots of fun.
