3 Medals For Ireland In EAME Championships
Irish Representatives performed well at the EAME Championships in Italy.

Ryan McDonald won Bronze in Slalom and Jump, scoring Personal Bests in both disciplines and picked up an Overall Junior Boys Bronze. Over the last couple of  seasons Ryan had skied little due to a broken wrist in one season and a broken leg in the other which greatly reduced his training which was evident as he was very tired for all three finals. Ryan has still another year at junior level so who knows what might happen next year!
In addition, he finished a credible 12th in the Open Event.

Andy McDonald made it through to the Open Men’s Trick Event Final with two Personal best’s and new Irish records. In true 'Andy' fashion he introduced front to front 360s after his familiarisation run behind the Gekko. This was two firsts, number one he had never seen a Gekko before and two he had never tried a 360 on his feet before! His only reason for attempting it was that he could not figure out the rotation rules so exhaustively explained by Andy Harris. He finished a credible 5th in the Trick Event and 8th Overall…
