A great race for New England yesterday, but this is a pretty tight event right now. A mere two points separate us from Alaska, and Inter-Mountain is a close third. Happily, our wax techs nailed the kick and the glide, and our athletes were on their game.

We had 11 (!) of our 12 JIIs in the heats, and at least 5 in every other category for guys and girls. (Chest bumps abounded.) Despite a very disappointing dsq. for our top JII boy, and an OJ boy dropped from the A finals for obstruction, New England packed all the heats and peppered the podiums. What more can I say; we had a good day against a great field.



Today New England inspected the skate course, tomorrow we will do it up. Watch for updates, this event is just getting warmed up.
