Danny Reid Memorial

Danny Reid was a 32 year old skier with a passion for the southern mountains, who was tragically killed in a freak accident on the north face of Treble Cone in September 1997.

Danny was an outstanding skier who had become the "face" of New Zealand skiing in the 90's, an internationally renowned ski-tuner, a great friend to all of us at Browns and an unassuming, unsung Kiwi Sportman.

The New Zealand Masters features the Danny Ried Memorial Downhill, and the trophy donated by Guenther Raedler is appropriately inscribed: Camaraderie and Valour, An Alpine Gentleman.
