Snowboard Federation |
| The Championships rotate locations each year by which division
of California is hosting. This year the Central Divisions are
hosting. |
| There are approx. 12-15 volunteers, provided by the hosting
division, that help with getting the racers lined up, posting
times, announcing, etc. Please thank them for all of their hard
work when you see them. |
| There will be approximately 500 racers here for the four days
of racing. |
| There are six divisions of ski and six divisions of snowboard
in high school racing for California. |
Overall Team Champions from 2007:
Snowboard Men's: El Dorado HS; Snowboard Women's: Shasta HS;
Snowboard Combined: El Dorado HS
Ski Men's: Davis HS; Ski Women's: Placer HS; Ski Combined: Davis HS |
| The last time that the High School Championships were held at Northstar-at-Tahoe was in 2001.
|
| Last years winners of the combined GS

| If you walk into the race shack at the bottom of the hill
you could bring penalty points to your school or even a disqualification.
Enjoy the view from outside, it is much less stressful. |
| The times of each racer will be announced over the PA and
posted on the unofficial board at the bottom of the course. |

Top Dawg
Award
The Top Dawg
award is in its sixth year. This is a way to recognize those
athletes that are not here just to race but to encourage, help and support
others. We all see these kids, they are exceptional athletes and go above
and beyond the call of the event. We thank the team that shows this the best
with a plaque to return home with to be hung at their school. |
