George Coon from Mistissini is this year’s undisputed Amateur Status Ski-Doo Champion from Quebec.
At the end of the 1995/96 year he was alone in the lead with 835 points, compared to the second-place competitor from Chibougamau who only scored 565 points.
George is a shy winner often ducking reporters. We wish George all the success in the future and would also like to thank all the sponsors for believing in this young Cree man. All the photos are from races George participated in this year. Rumour has it that he might be doing a little summer racing somewhere in the States. We’ll keep you updated.
