E1 and E2 Racers wrap up season at Revelstoke 2006/03/06

Big White Racers had a great time at the Revelstoke Zone Final. It was very warm and sunny on Saturday, and the E1 course was hard and icy in the morning, then softened up in the afternoon. The E2 course was icy in the morning, and held up without a reset as the sky clouded over. Everybody had a good time, the challenging course. Here are the results for the two days: Saturday, E1 dual glalom – two run team averaged time There were 7 Green teams for 31 kids, 9 Blue teams for 37 kids and 3 Black teams for 15 kids; for a total of 83 E1 kids competing.
