After some less than desirable snow conditions and weather leading up to the National Championship races, it was great to begin to excellent conditions on the 20th August with the giant slalom.  Had a fast second run but it wasn’t quite enough to pull away from the faster first run from team mate Willis, so came in at second place.  Amazing weather and great conditions continued for the slalom race on the 20th and I took out the National Champion title for the third year running.  Take a look at the great conditions and some of the athletes at the slalom race (I’m bib 2) in this video from Snowsports NZ.
