Snowboard Racing

I started racing this season. I think I stagnated in my boarding last season and I think racing would help me get more focused.I have been improving over the last few weeks and the results from all the races till now are below:

Wk1 - 54.28s
Wk2 - cancelled for lack of snow
Wk3 - 51.05s
Wk4 - 48.74s & 45.32s & unoffical 3rd time of 42.6s

The first few weeks because of the lack of snow in the northeast, we race the course only once. Normally you get 2 races and you race side by side with another racer. My 3rd unofficial time was the first time I raced with a snowboarder and I think having a pace setter helped me a lot. Hopefully I will improve more but now it will get tougher to do so.

The course is more suited to skiers and the Nastar offical pace setter comes in around 26sec.
