Next up we have the ‘Of the Year’ Awards.
This year has been an exceptional year for DMU Snow, and it would not have been possible without these core members.
Skier of the Year is awarded to Sophie Houghton. Not only has Sophie joined us this year, but her consistency and her enthusiasm in all training sessions and competitions is something that has shone through to all members of the club. Sophie’s effort in training sessions is absolutely fantastic, and she is continuously striving to do better, as well as being fantastically consistent. Similar to Dan, these attributes have landed Sophie the role as Ski Captain next year. We wish you all the best Sophie.
Boarder of the Year is awarded to none other than our big boy Flo Rida. As you have seen from our social media posts, Flo has been an absolute core member of our society, in our Kings winning and BUCS placing team. Not only did he perform exceptionally well for his team, but individually he managed to place 12th in the country, even though he spends all of training trying to learn new skills on the kicker rather than racing. We are so proud of you Flo!
And finally Freestyler of the Year. This one has been hard to gauge, considering Freestylers don’t really get the competition time they deserve. However we have decided to award this to Ben Walker, as every week at training we have seen him improve and become a fantastic freestyle skier, as well as having the balls to throw whatever shape he wants off of the kicker. Well done Ben, we will miss you next year.
Once again, congratulations to all ❤️🖤
