We have another success of AZS UG in the Polish Academic Championships, this time in Snowboarding. A great individual result was achieved by Jakub Błaszczyszyn, a student of the University of Gdańsk. Both AZS UG teams came back with medals in the team classification.

Report by Piotr Walczak, President of AZS UG:

Between March 3-6, the Polish Academic Snowboard Championships for Women and Men were held in Szczawnica. The gold medal in the general classification of Jakub Błaszczyszyn is a great achievement. With a time of 20.48, the student of the Faculty of Economics won the final in the banked slalom, beating, among others, Oskar Kwiatkowski (AWF Katowice), an Olympian from Beijing! This is the first gold medal in the history of the snowboard section of AZS UG.

Both representations of the University of Gdańsk did very well, unanimously winning bronze medals in the classification of universities in the team scoring.
