January 28, 2010 (Tabor, Czech Republic) – The World Championship course opened for official training today. With fresh snow and temperatures still below freezing, the course had many icy sections. Riders were going down in corners, downhill, uphill and barrier sections. The Canadian team had a good session on the course working on the technical sections favouring finesse over power.

Friday will also have an official training time and will be the final opportunity to learn the best lines through the tricky course before racing starts on Saturday.
