Wax:
Skate skis: Hot wax with Toko Yellow & Toko Red, mixed 1:1. LF or CH, no high fluros allowed.
Classic Skis: Clean all wax & klister off your kick zone. Hot wax tips and tails the same as skate skis.
Coaches Tom, Luke and Eric Barker will be helping kids wax.
Arrival:
General rule of thumb is to arrive 90 minutes before your race if your skis need to be waxed for classic. When you arrive, first find the MNC tent, check in with coaches and drop off your classic skis to be waxed. Then go to registration (white tent, upper soccer field) and get your bib number. Registration opens at noon.
Course Previews:
Coaches will be on hand to preview the course with you.
Grades 1/2- will preview the course at about 12:15 with Coach Kristina or a parent.
Grades 3/4- will preview the course at about 12:45 with Coach Emilie
Grades 5 & 6- will preview the course at 1 pm with Coach Eden
Grades 7 & 8 will preview the course at 1 pm with Coach Terence.
Transition Zone:
You will put your skate skis in the transition zone about 15 minutes before you go to the starting line. Coaches will be there to help you stage them. If you are changing poles too, leave your skate poles with your skis. (You must change your skis, but you don’t have to change your poles).
Awards:
After all the races in the white tent. Everyone gets a ribbon and is entered into our raffle for prizes from SkiRack, Toko, Rossignol, Bobo & US Biathlon. It’s traditional for the Host Club (that’s us!) to provide snacks so please bring something to share!
