Ski News January 2011

The 1st Ski Day for this season was held on Sunday 16th January. It was a lovely calm morning. The very high water level rolls about and debris was an issue but generally the skiing conditions were very good.

There was some good skiing with most skiers having near personnel best performances at there individual ski levels. It was an enjoyable, fun, non serious morning.

Unfortunately we are not attracting new younger skiers to these days. If there are members/parents of younger children who like their skiing then it would be good to discus these club events with them and whether they may wish to have a try.

 

The majority of MRSBC members are social skiers. Their boating activities include water skiing, wakeboarding, knee boarding along with other methods of towing persons behind a boat. Most of these activities are carried out on "open" water areas where no skiing infrastructure is required. All of these activities are well suited to the reservoir, particularly over the past decade with wakeboarding becoming so popular.  Some of the earlier Australiancompetition skiers began skiing at the club. The Club maintains a slalom ski course for the more advanced slalom skiers, and is hoping to get the ski jump re installed for the 2010-2011 season.Ben

 

Ski Cousre\After some boating it is also very pleasant to enjoy the clubs social facilities while looking down over the activities on the water. 

The club generally runs 2 or 3 informal ski "tournament type" events each season and hopes to incorporate wakeboarding this season. In addition there is a come and learn/improve day over the New Years day period.
