Headed down to Snowshoe, WV for a weekend of great racing for the Power Aid series. The weather on the mountain was out of this world, kinda strange since last season at the shoe was always a washout. Saturday held the first ever giant slalom, and did Team Chainsmoke show up! With three podiums one of them being the top spot we represented well. The course proved challenging with large gap jumps and huge berms, great course design by the trail builders at the shoe.
Brad Smith 1st
Rob Helm 1st
Richard Garyantes 3rd
Sunday was old school Snowshoe with the race course being Pro DH with an ending from the NORBA days on the right side of the lift. Rained lightly Saturday night so it made a fast course that much faster. Once again Team Chainsmoke Rep’d well with five podiums! It was a killer weekend at the shoe and we are looking forward to the next three races.
