UASC CLUB CHAMPS ARE BACK!
Due to the terrible weather at our Club Champs weekend, a lot of snow fell and a lot of beer was drunk but no racing actually took place....
So as a result we are going to run them again, on the 2nd & 3rd of October, and we just so happened to already have a beginners bus trip planned for that weekend! So now we are going to combine the two events into one.
And if you hadn’t noticed, over a metre of snow has just fallen on Ruapehu!
The Plan
We'll be meeting up at 4:00pm at Uni or 4.30 at Greenlane Mcdonalds on Friday 1 October and piling into an 18 seater bus! This is provided by Bodhi from skibumbus.com and has a cranking soundsystem and flatscreen tv’s for ski movies on the way down. And so begins the road trip! Make sure you bring along a few beers for the trip!! We'll stop along the way down for you to grab a bite to eat then ONWARD to the mountain. The Club Champs is open to skiers and boarders and will run on Saturday morning, we will also include a couple of more alcohol themed races in the afternoon so even if you are not up to the big races you will still have a shot at glory! There are prizes for category winners as well as a $30 SNOWCENTRE VOUCHER FOR BEST COSTUME on the slopes on Saturday!
For those beginners out there, we will not be able to provide instruction on Saturday morning due to the races, but we will make sure you know where you are going and help out where we can, and once racing is done we can give you some pointers on the slopes as well.
