Another Epic Day at Turoa for Secondary Schools Snowboard Comp

Day Two of the K2-Queenstown Resort College North Island Secondary Schools Snowboard Competition and another all night re-build of the Boardercross course and what a course on another bluebird day! There was a large crowd enjoying the latest spring snow at Turoa.


In addition to the best Secondary School athletes from throughout the North Island, seven up and coming Grommets from Raglan and Ruapehu were invited to this year's event. The spectators were entertained by the riding skills of these eight and ten year olds.
