Premium Member Comment by Marek on March 13, 2015 at 9:24: Boyd def a winner in the over 60s. Personally I'm glad i'm in the over 40s (just) the competition in the over 50's looks fierce!

ASRA Admin Comment by Scotty Taylor on March 13, 2015 at 7:12: Thanks for noticing that Boyd, I think Neil did a screen capture and you weren't on the final results page, will double check on the proper spreadsheet and fix it up.

Premium Member Comment by boydinaus on March 13, 2015 at 6:50: thanks again for all the hard work it is always a good event, if you could find me in the slalom that would be great - i did both timing runs and one run in the comp, i think i won the over 60's bracket.

Comment by Philip Bond on March 10, 2015 at 20:35: Thanks CROSS crew for a great relaxing weekend, good to catch up with all the wigglers and great to see some certainly have not lost their touch.

Congrats to Nathan - King Roo of Slalom, Shadow and Martin for their success and I hope to be there next year.
