Hello Ski Fans,

It’s time for final preparation for the Okanagan Cup/BCWG trials!

SATURDAY

Pre-ski of courses is at 3pm. I’d advise leaving early, there is considerable snow in the forecast.

SUNDAY

Race Skis; cleaned, waxed with Swix CH5 or Toko red/blue mix, grip zones sanded and base binder applied – to the tent by 9:30am. Pick up your bib at the same time.

Warm-up skis: Likely Super Blue is a good warm up wax

L2T warm up ski with Lisa Wambold and Magnus Aaserud 10:15

T2T warm up ski with Jamie Sprules and Murray Farbridge 10:30

The start list will be posted tomorrow morning at the latest.

Full details are on the earlier post found here: https://race.teamtelemark.ca/revelstoke-bcwg-trials-okanagan-cup-plan/

We still need volunteers to help set up tomorrow, and to help with the waxing Sunday morning!
