K2 Challenge

This is the first major event of the New Zealand circuit,
July 26/ 27 1997.

The 2nd day of the event, 1/2 pipe draw a huge crowd to Cardrona today. Over 120 competitors took part in the event on a mild, high overcast day.
The event was judged in an elimination format with all riders getting 2 runs. The huge field was eventually knocked down to the top 4 women and the top 8 men for the finals.

The finals saw each competitor do two judged runs with the best of these 2 counting. The 1/2 pipe was in awesome shape with many competitors saying they were amazed how well it had stood up to huge traffic all day long.
The standard of riding was exceptionally high. N.Z's best just keep getting better and it was great to see the junior catagory ripping.
