The southern Ruapehu area's fastest man on skis, Chris Mosaed from Raetihi, was slowed up considerably by slush during the nationals at Whakapapa last week, though he was awarded a trophy for the fastest time recorded in the giant slalom. Warm temperatures, while making the conditions pleasant, were not the best for fast times, and the race was later abandoned. Bad weather towards the end of the event saw the men's races canned, though the women's events were completed with Annelisse Coberger taking the national title.
