Sprint Weekend Results
- Last Updated: Wednesday, 29 March 2023 16:52
A number of ONSW members collaborated to produce a movie of the Female and Male Knockout Finals at the recent Sydney Sprint Weekend.
It’s a fantastic insight into what it’s like to be competing at the elite level.
There were 11 cameras on the course, including GoPro action from Sam Woolford (competing in the final), Oscar Mella & Duncan Currie.
The footage was collated and produced by Richard Pattison & Melissa Thomas.
The movies are available on YouTube:

ONSW would like to recognise Mark Shingler and his incredible team of volunteers who put together the Sydney Sprint Weekend 2023!
