Murdo, who only began competing on snow this year, was one of four boys from the UK to win the U16 team event at the British Alpine Championships, which included Slalom, Giant Slalom and Super G.
He said, “I’m over the moon with our result, being part of the team was fantastic and it’s a great way to end the snow season.”
Murdo, who joined Strathallan in Year 6, has been skiing since he was three years old.
He added, “I’ve been competing on dry slopes for seven years, so it was amazing to race the slalom, giant slalom and Super G on the snow. It’s a lot harder, the conditions are tougher but it makes the win so much more worth it and the views are always good.”
With races lined up for almost every weekend in May and June, Murdo has his eye set on continuing his flying form and plans to race indoor at the British Schools Championships for Strathallan in June.
Jim Thompson, Director of Sport, said “We are incredibly proud of Murdo’s outstanding result. His progression is great to see. It is fantastic to see his efforts on the snow rewarded in France. Good luck for the dry slope season!”
