Scottish Dry Slope Championships

Last weekend saw Ellie and I in Edinburgh for the Scottish Dry Slope Championships at Hillend in Edinburgh, the longest artificial ski slope in europe.  We had a training session on Friday night followed by a slalom race on Saturday and then Giant Slalom on Sunday.  Unfortunately the Saturday course was unbelievably hard and, like two thirds of the entrants, Ellie was disqualified for missing a gate.  Sunday went better with her completing both runs of the giant slalom cleanly and taking 5 seconds off her time from last year.
