Beer League Race #4. Out 4:00 to 8:30 with a quick stop at the car to change skis after the race; sunny and warm with temps quickly falling into the upper twenties as the sun went down; 19 runs, 10,930 verical; skied the Atomic Redster D2 3.0's, the Atomic Redster G9 RS's and the Nordica Enforcer 88's; soft groomers with the steeps on North Face starting to firm and/or bump; skied okay; could have pulled a really nice result tonight, but I got late and dropped all kinds of time in the bottom half of the Red course and still was only .03 seconds slower than my time in the Blue.

Beer League Race #2. Out 4:00 to 6:30 with a quick stop at the car to pick up the GoPro; temps falling to around freezing, no wind and a beautiful sunset; 11 runs; 5,957 vertical; skied the Head i.Speed GS Cheater 19's and the Atomic Redster G9 RS's; frozen, new, uneven snowmaking on the race hill; good crowd, 5+ minute lift line at Phoebe after the race so I left; skied horribly; I did beat all the women, but only because Stacey skied horribly as well; 20.68 NASTAR hcp (Gold); after reviewing the video I think my problem is not accounting for terrain changes - I'm not getting my turns done above the rolls, so I ski straight over the roll, the ground drops away and I can't make the turn till I'm back on the ground which puts me way low and late...
