  Cruickshank was pleased with his runner's up spot, and shared the new champion's relief to be back racing full time.
  
  A year ago Cruickshank chose to pursue a career with the RAF as a pilot officer, not quite knowing what leave he would be granted to continue on The British Land National Alpine Ski Team.

  Cruickshank, who came to the British team via his local Gordon Skiers club near his native Banchory, and then the Scottish Alpine Ski Team,
  
  " Really I could not ask for more now and seeing what Alain Baxter has achieved recently I have got four years to get there, and I'm confident I can."
  
  The Women's title was again won by the reigning British overall title holder Chemmy Alcott but she was made to work doubly hard thanks to a couple of errors, which crept in as she nears the end of a long and tough season.
  
  " This is my last championships as a Junior and while I've won at Senior level this is one I really wanted today.I felt myself getting deeper and deeper into the big ruts on the second run and knew I was going to touch down at some point, so when I did I just fought back and I'm just glad I made it!"smiled Alcott.

  Last year, before Cruickshank started the officer training with the RAF which has taken up so much of his time since then, he was showing most promise in Super G. Leuzinger's current preference is Slalom.Both have not skied Super G seriously at all this season so tomorrow's title fight should be very interesting.
  
  What is exciting for the future of British skiing is that both these skiers, who are both 19 and tower well over six feet, are close enough to push each other hard in all their disciplines and are already firm friends as well as rivals on the race tracks, a pairing of 'likes' which has been very rare in British skiing over recent years.
  
  " If the two of them can stay the course for the next few years and really apply themselves then they can share a very exciting future.Both of them are big and strong and very focussed and are already skiing well considering the limited amount of skiing they have been doing."
