Racing Highlights
By Jerry Stokely
The race results are in from our
first race. Those of us who went to
ROKKA race camp really got an edge over
the others. We had a week of training. I
think we had excellent coaches and for
myself, I had to do some serious
correcting of bad habits I didn’t know
about. Most other skiers felt the same.
The training was excellent for learning
in that the snow we were skiing on was
mostly hard pack and groomed hard pack.
We got really comfortable with our
edges.
The first race was changed to a
Slalom due to the hard fast snow
conditions. I skied it fairly
conservatively and it was a comfortable
course. I felt I could have pushed a lot
harder. Our club did very well. We had 6
racers from our club. Bryce Fuller, a
new member got his chance at a racing
for the first time as well. We welcome
Bryce to our racing team.
Here’s the awards list in order of
class.

Congrats to all our racers, a good job
on some hard and fast conditions. We
have substantially more points than any
other club in San Diego. Way to go
guys!!!
I’m looking forward to the next
race on the 7th of January. It’s coming
up quick. They say they will be doing a
Friday clinic again this season. If you
can make it up, it really helps.
Registration for the clinic is Friday
the 6th in Roma’s room at 12:30 sharp.
Wax and most importantly sharpen
those GS skis. We always welcome
newcomers to the racing program. Give me
a call or email me if you are interested
or need more information. Here’s the
race dates for the rest of the season.
There should be a clinic the Friday
before each of them.
January 7th - GS
January 28th Far West trip
February 11th GS
March 24th and 25th- SOCALCS (GS and SL)
April 5th - 8th FWRA Championships at
Mammoth
If any of you want a free clinic with me
on Fridays just let me know and we can
get some training runs in together. We
always have a group training most of the
day Friday. It’s not gates but it’s
working on the same elements.
