Welcome Skiers,
December 2023 Update (as of 12/26/23)
Best Holiday Wishes and Happy New Year!
Rokka held its first race event of the 2023-2024 season on 12/8/2024. The event was supposed
to feature (4) GS races. But due to the lack of snow, we were limited to having 2 GS races
run from 3/4 the way up ADG (Andy's Double Gold). Each race featured (2) runs, with the
best of 2 runs being the official time used for determining your position and points.
The results can be found on the results page of this site.
Given the conditions, we would like to thank all the racers who went out of their way
to make the race a success, some coming up to Mammoth just for the race, knowing that
only 4 lifts and the Gondola operating. We would also like to
thank the Master's skiers, who help subsidize the cost of our course, by using the course
for training (and allowing us all to see how we should really look).
We are now looking forward to holding our famous Rokka Race Clinic, a 3 day no frills
clinic on racing or basic skiing/boarding techniques. The clinic is scheduled to occur
on Feb 27th-29th, and will be followed by our last race event of the season. You can get
more details on the camp here.
The Race event that follows the Rokka clinic will start on Feb 29th, with a 2 hours race Clinic
on one of the race courses. Registration for the clinic will be about noon in Jill's Room
in the Mammoth Lodge.. Look out for Scott Peer - who will be collecting the fee for taking
the clinic (usually about $30 - in cash or by check). Lastly, on March 1st, we are planning
on having 4 GS races. Registration for the race can be done at 3:30 in the Afternoon in
Jill's room, or early on the morning of the day of our official races.
In closing, we would like to mention that the SDCSC website
(which corresponds to the parent organization for all the San Diego based ski clubs) has been updated
to reflect all the trips made by all the clubs, some of which are bus trips, some are fly aways- and other
are carpool based trips to get a day on the slopes.. Make sure to check out our
Calendar Page for our current
race schedules and clinics including the expected dates of the finals in April - in Mammoth.
