Brad Haight Memorial Race Kombi

Gianni skied his last race of the year today at Mt. Snow. He finished in 6th place vs. VT kids. He is a happy boy.

DI State Tournament Today

The boys did really well today. They enjoyed another successful year of DI. They placed 2nd at States.

Pat's Peak SL and First Day of Spring

Gianni had a really great day today. He finished 8th out of 27 in another NH race, this time slalom. Gianni hates slalom, but today he kicked butt, beating four kids that dominated over him this year. I enjoyed another day resting my knee, while watching him in the spring sun. Great weekend!

Sap Run GS Results

Gianni finished 18 out of 38 in the first run. Really good considering they were all VT and NH kids, Burke Mountain Academy, etc. He had his first crash of the year (ever, for that matter) in the second run. His ski just popped off on a steep icy turn. He had a really fast run going and his form was great. I was told to tighten his bindings beyond the level set at the shop, but didn't. Gianni wasn't happy with me. GS is his favorite and he was doing really well. I guess that's ski racing, on the edge. If I crank down the bindings he could get hurt, and then really be unhappy.

Tri-State J4 Championships

Gianni participated in the Tri-State J4 Championships yesterday. Due to rain they canceled Sunday's races. Instead they packed all 4 races in on Saturday. Gianni did pretty well, slightly better in salmon, which is typically his weaker discipline. It rained in the morning yesterday, but overall was an OK day weather-wise. Nice job to the organizers for pulling off 2 days of racing in one! Now we have a rare day of rest to enjoy.
