NSWIS/SSA TID REPORT


The NSWIS TID Camp last weekend had an awesome turn out with some of the best young halfpipe riders in Australia. The two day camp was to Talent ID young riders for future positions on the NSWIS team coached by Ben Alexander. We will now invite the top performers at this camp to attend another camp in September where we will hopefully ask 2 athletes to be apart of the NSWIS team.

The camp went well with perfect conditions at Perisher Blue. The pipe was cut to perfection and the sun was shinning for both the days. We had a total of 14 attendants which was an unbelievable turnout of young riders.

Ben Alexander and Ben Wordsworth were pleasantly surprised at the amount of talented riders coming through at such a young age. As we look forward we are going to have a very strong talent pool for the future of Australian halfpipe riding. It is great to see the younger generation focusing on one of the harder disciplines in snowboarding. Halfpipe riding takes a lot of motivation and skill level to reach the international standard.

I would like to thank all the riders who came to the camp and put in 100% for the 2 days.
We will now send out information to the riders that are chosen for the second camp running in September. Please look on SSA website for any future camps and information.
