The first big event of the season for TBR athletes took part last Saturday, with the Buller Slopestyle comp running in tricky conditions.
The Mt Buller Park Crew have done an amazing job all season to have a great facility open despite the limited snow this year, so huge appreciation from TBR to the park crew and mountain operations department.
Visibility was tough for all competitors, and fresh snow/rain also made speed on the course challenging, with athletes needing to adapt their strategy to put down clean runs.
No doubt it was great to be competing again, and everyone who took part would have learnt a lot on slopestyle strategy which will help for the upcoming interschools and future events.
The runs were scored on overall impression with the following criteria (best run counts):Progression, Amplitude, Variety, Execution and Difficulty
During the competitor’s briefing the Head Judge explained that clean runs would be rewarded over hucked/ crashed tricks or skipped features.
