There is now good snow for skiing around the Nordic Shelter at Perisher and several ACT juniors have been out skiing.

There are two events this weekend:
- Saturday 15 July 9.30am NSW junior sprint (classic technique)
- Sunday 16 July 10am ACT distance (freestyle/ skate technique)

Please ensure you obtain a race license from SSA prior to the events. Register as a XC Sports Racer at a cost of $33 https://www.skiandsnowboard.org.au/home/

You can register online for the races and other events at https://regonline.activeglobal.com/Register/Checkin.aspx?EventID=1964385
Alternatively you can register on the day but please arrive early.

Even if you enter online, please ensure you arrive at least 1 hour before the start time to get your bib and warm up. Traffic through Jindabyne is likely to be heavy so it might be an idea to get through Jindabyne by 7.30am.

For the classic event pole height must be no more than 83% of skier height (refer previous post).

No high flourishing wax is to be used as per waxing protocol. Please refer to previous post. At this stage Swix LF8 or equivalent of another brand is recommended for glide wax.

On Saturday afternoon for those that don’t race there will be some training after the races and presentations. Approximate start time 1.30pm.
