Well, we were finally racing in Neustift today and had a rather rough day. Three starters and one lone finisher. The piste was moved down the glacier to under the Gamsgarten Bahn on what they call #3. A tough newly made snow surface from a day ago made for some challenging conditions. A good hard surface that got more and more dished and could not be worked.
Still, the guys first run was far from what they are doing in training, but racing against young juniors with last names like Matt and Schild are bound to get you a little jumpy. And it did!
We had a little chat between runs on sticking their nose in there a little more. And they did. Run 2 was much better. However, Mike straddled on the pitch, Kyle hooked and Cam remained the only one to get through.
We take the day tomorrow to recharge our batteries for a couple days of training and then two GS starts.
Chow!
