So.... a successful week for the Ambition Race Team at the Welsh Champs in Les Crosets last week - i would have loved to get the blog up daily but our connection simply didn't allow!!!!

After the final GS training, Roy Steudle carried on the form that has seen him take one FIS win already this season with a blistering 1st run in Tuesday's FIS GS. After the 2nd run the standings stayed the same for Roy to take his 2nd win of the season by 1.15 over 2nd place and a PB points score of 63. Emily Pocock (125), Violet Miller (106) and Barney Lewis (129) also secured PB results on the same day, finally getting some of their training form into the races.

Wednesday's FIS Slalom followed a similar pattern with Tom White (88), Barney Lewis (99), Imogen Taylor (74), Emily Evans (62), Ellie Pocock (80) and Kieran Norris (128) all scoring best results. The girls especially laid it down on the first run, Emily Evans finally turning things around after some tough training days earlier in the week.

Having for-run on the Wednesday, Will Wheeler and Max Asquith were more than prepared and ready to rumble for Thursday's BASS Slalom, with Will nailing the 2nd run moving up from 6th to edge his way onto the podium. Alex Buchanan also laid down 2 clean runs to take 2nd in the female junior category.

On Friday, it was a fitting ending to a great week, with the Ambition Boys (Will and Aza) finishing the GS in 1st and 2nd respectively. This was the first podium of Max Asquith's racing career and we are very proud and excited for him after all his hard work over the past 3 years.

I don't say it enough as i am always looking to the next race or next training but i am both happy and incredibly proud of the Ambition athletes and what they have achieved already this winter. Long may it continue.

Marc.

(P.S - we also got some free-skiing time in finally)
