HS pursuit/Jackson 30k

Friday night pursuit
Temp: 3-10'
Snow: Mostly manmade tilled powder, with some areas of the course having some tilled in ice.

Wax: Toko Base green ironed in the day before, with a second layer corked in on rae day. The results from the race were great. This wax was able to climb all of the terrain on the course, some schools opted to cover the base green with a hard wax. Which gave them a little better glide. I feel this was a slight advantage at the start of the race, as we may have been only slightly slower. Following the start we were able to outclimb many schools, and passing on the downhills, due to the number of racers was not likely and may have only enhanced the likely hood af a crash. This was the wax of the night in my opinion.

Jackson 30k
Temp: 5- 12'
Snow: Natural old tilled powder

Wax: Toko Base green ironed in the day before, covered with Damian's convented Swix VR 30. The Swix rep had tested VR 30 and went for somthing faster. The ski's worked well today, producing a woman's championship, and placed 2 of our men in the top 3, behind only Kris Freeman. The Swix skiers, had gambled with fast ski's and placed there top male in 13th. I skied with the top woman for some of the race, outclimbing her, and passing her as she rewaxed. Her ski's were slightly faster than mine. Thier gamble may have paid off in a 5k, but not in a 30k.
