Voncooper Update June 21-22

[Willem]

Hello,

This weekend Team Voncooper was at Mt. Snow V.T.. Donnie is back from his broken leg and James is almost better from his cracked skull. James was at the race supporting everyone.

SATURDAY: was Down Hill practice and Saturday night was the Dual Slalom race. Almost all of the team raced in Dual Slalom. Mt. Snow did a really good job on both tracks this weekend. Voncooper was on the podium in every Dual Slalom class except Pro and Womens. Phil Kemtez Totally Killed everyone in DS and was the Fastest Qualifier out of everyone, even the Pros. Donnie and I raced pro. I qualified 5th and Donnie was close behind in 6th. I crashed out in the first round and Donnie didn't make it past the first round.

SUNDAY: was a really nice day early in the A.M.. Just before the race was supposed to start the weather kicked into high gear. The Down Hill race was canceled because Lighting struck the mountain and it was unsafe for people to be on the lift.

My video from this weekend is just DS.

Nice, too bad about the weather shutting down Sunday's race. Nice to hear that they gave out vouchers for the next race!

I think Fisher handled to situation as best as he could. Fisher is a good guy and I feel that he does a great job with the races.
