ncermak Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 USASA MA will be having another Race (GS and SL) at Ski Ward in Shrewsbury on Saturday the 10th. details will be posted on WWW.ridemass.org soon. Ski Ward has also agreed to give us some hill space on Tuesday 2/6 to get in some Gate training. They offer 2 for 1 tickets from 6-9 on weeknights, so the cost will be $10/person. There will be no cost to come run gates, and get some free coaching. I anticipate that there will be a veteran of the Greek National Snowbord team in attendance as well. p.s.: for those of you saying the place is too small, remember, FIS hosts a WC race indoors...

ncermak Posted February 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Jenney, Bob D, etc...where are you guys...You've all been talking about trying to get wawa to let you set for years... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wavechaser Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Noah - does this mean the training course will be available from 6p-9p ONLY? Will it be $20 if I come alone? SL or GS or both? I might make the trek from Sugarbush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ncermak Posted February 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 yes...6-9 only. I'll have to figure out what to do in terms of SL and GS...I have to set some GS there to see how it runs, and I'd like set one of each. unless you find someone to go 2 for 1 with, I think it is $20 -NBC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gleb Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 I might come out to just check you guys out in a non sexual way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfleck Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 Should be a good time, and a great chance to run some actual snowboard gates. I'll try to bring my video camera so we can set it up at the bottom and get some of the action on tape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ncermak Posted February 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 Gleb - You are running some gates whether you like it or not...in a non sexual way of course... You should bring skipuppy out with you too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tex1230 Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 I'll see if I can make it Saturday - low probability, but I haven't run gates in ~ 15 years...could be a kick... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willywhit Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 How about we get enough racers and everybody throws in $5. Fastest time wins the pot. Fleck has to run the video and won't be allowed to race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fleck has to run the video and won't be allowed to race. I'm definitly in for forfeiting my hard earned $5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfleck Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Looks like we're going to have a pretty good crowd. Don't worry Willy, even if I'm running the camera, there's a guy who works at Ward who used to race FIS for the Greek National team. I'm sure he'd be willing to take your money! See y'all tomorrow night! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
