“SBX racing is similar to BMX racing and skicross. Four racers at a time charge down the track in a race to the finish line. The action is fast paced and intense,” he added.
“If you have a young snowboarder in your household who’s keen to find a fun pack of other shredders to rip with or maybe even interested in competing, throw our club an email and let’s get them involved.”
The Apex club brought four athletes to race in three different categories, including Nathan Hamm in Mens U13, Stone Shulman and Chase Giesbrecht in Mens U15 and Hailey Zednai in Womens U18.
Zednai won gold on Saturday and Sunday, while Hamm won bronze on Saturday and Sunday and Giesbrecht won bronze on Sunday.
“This event brought more than 10 teams and over 100 racers from around B.C. including Silverstar, Revelstoke, Rossland, Sun Peaks, the Vancouver area, Whistler and even a club from California, to Big White to race on a fast SBX track.”
