April's WETA Award goes to...
Southern Traverse
Southern Traverse mountaing biking and abseiling event in Queenstown, New Zealand
If you thought the site that won in 1998 was good, wait until you see this one. Stunning graphics, plenty of multimedia action and all the information you need to know on the event, past and future.

As well as keeping you up-to-date with event news on a day to day basis, the site allows you to follow the progress of a particular team during the live event (in November). All of the entry details are clearly laid out including costs and, there are some great pictures!

If we were to be really picky, perhaps the "shockwave" map of the circuit could have been created using Java or JavaScript thus, avoiding the need for a "plug-in". Macromedia's Shockwave is however a very popular plug-in and its automated installation is a snap.

Southern Traverse is a worthy first entrant into the "WETA Hall of Fame". Visit the site now and see why!
