XContest Season Wrap Up 2022

(April 1st 2021 to March 31st 2022)

Another epic season finished with lots of huge flights taking place. Again, the south was cranking with most of the season's big flights. A number of new site records tumbled across both the islands. No surprise that the southern club won the club competition with almost double the points of second place. Big congratulations to Louis who has again won the XC Championship for the 4^th season in a row.

Lots of great XC competitions also taking place this season and a big shout out to all the event organizers around the country in such difficult times with gatherings.

Here's a few highlights:

• A ripper of a flight from Chris Connolly and Kinga!
  (Connolly, 174km, Coronet Peak), (Kinga, 142km, Speed peak)
• Another big out and back from Louis, (Tapper, 193km, Long Gully)
• High scoring flight in the North Island from Shaun Gilbert, (Gilbert, 112km, Te Mata Peak)
• Over Forty NZ 100km+ flights
