Ski shops prove it!
Turoa challenged ski shops to show their stuff last Sunday and prove that they don't just talk about it. Teams of four raced a giant slalom course and the Ohakune Powderhorn Ski Bahn team took first prize! They're pictured here (through a Mumm Champagne haze • their prize? No, just a fuzzy Polaroid) from left Patrick Cpoper, Nick Ridings, Tony Munroe and Murray Brown.
