Ski Club holds its first tournament of 2015

The Canyon Lake Ski Club held its first tournament for 2015 this past weekend, May 16 and 17. Thirty-three skiers competed over the two-day competition in slalom, trick, and jump events.

Skiers count their best tournament performance score for placement in each of the disciplines. Scores are then submitted to USA Water Ski to be included for calculating each skier’s placement on the national ranking list.
