Sunny skies, wide smiles, and great attitudes were prominent in a well-organized Coast zone race series last weekend at Cypress Mountain Resort.
Over 100 volunteers worked behind-the-scenes and on the race courses, pulling off two days of slalom racing for 140+ U14 boys and girls. The race ran down Bowen Face, next to Midway Chair, at Cypress. Beautiful weather made for a comfortable time on the hill, though snow conditions required extra effort from the course crew to maintain.
“A record number of racers competed at Cypress Mountain this weekend. The sun accompanied us all through the weekend, and our course crew and a high number of volunteers helping out contributed to a successful event. It was great to see everyone helping out, and to see our team performing and skiing to the best of their abilities. Top ten and podium results are proof of the level of our racers. A big thank you to Cypress Mountain and all sponsors that support us throughout the season,” said Raul Anguita, Program Director.
