Practice tomorrow and SASSI info


Good job to all who raced today, it was good practice skiing in close with others and going hard. 

Thursday please be ready to do a workout on foot and skate ski, we may be able to do some work on the MM loop we used today.  Looking ahead to Saturday I expect the temps to be in the mid 30's so a wax like LF 8 will be fine, try to start by cleaning skis with a warm wax then add a cold wax or grafite base wax.  Scrape and brush well then add final race wax, check temps again on Thursday.  Clean the kick zone and sand with 80g paper and clean.  This prepares the ski for binder wax.  Rumford is expecting snow and some mix Thursday night and Friday, so the binder could be a HARD WAX or Klister depending on the amount of wet weather. Any binder should be applied THIN, I will go over this again later in the week.  Also the team could use a wax bench for the race, let me know if you have one.

Thanks,
John
