TOPOLINO TEAM NEWS

Our team had mixed results at this years event with some good performances from Sammy Kingston, Piera Hudson and Sophie Corser and some frustrating results for Nick Prebble and Richard Stevens.  In K1 Girls, Sophie Corser finished 32nd and Piera Hudon 42nd in GS and in the Kombi Race Piera was 29th and Sophie 31st.  In K2 girls Sammy Kingston finished 28th in GS and in Slalom neither Kate nor Sammy finished.

K2 Boys Giant Slalom only Richard Stevens managed to finish with Nick Prebble, Harrison Steedman and Wilbur Coote coming out.  In the Slalom event Harrison finished 42nd, Richard did not finish the first run and Nick and Wilbur did not finish the second.

Competition at this years event was again very strong with large fields forcing many of our athletes to start from far back in the order with nearly 140 entries in some of the events it was tough going but a great experience to see the best in the world in children's skiing competing.  The honours list from the Topolino event is littered with famous skiers who have gone from this to bigger and better things including Ingemar Stenmark, Benjamin Raich, Jean Pierre Vidal, Hans Knauss, Anita Wachter, Marc Girardelli and many others so our teams are following in big footsteps.
