ERSA SKI CHAMPIONSHIPS 2012

30th September 2012 WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER!! DANIEL OVERALL 2012 ERSA SNOW CHAMPION The 2nd part of the Eastern Region ski race championships were held at Hemel Snowcentre today. Both Daniel & Robert took part in this event racing for the Hemel Race club. Mum also took part as one of the necessary volunteer Race officials. Her job was finish referee. The format of the day was 2 runs down the same course and a GS run after the main event. After Run 1, Robert took a commanding overall lead having blasted a 12.15 run time with Daniel just behind him with a time of 12.19. Great sibling rivalry for all to enjoy! For Run 2, the start list was reversed and Daniel was the first of the brothers to race. A magical run from Daniel posted a sub 12sec time of 11.63! The challenge was on from Robert still at the top waiting as one of the last racers to race to try and top Daniels overall time. Sadly, this wasn't to be today...but it wasn't without a valiant effort which saw him ping out of the soft rutty snow course. The Glory was Daniels today and very well deserved to be the Overall ERSA Male Champion. The GS Championship race was won by Robert overall with a time of 10.38 with Daniel in 2nd place overall with 10.65 Daniel Overall Male ERSA Championships 2012
