Our team is skiing very well! Congratulations to all of our athletes’ accomplishments year-to-date. There is one video that Coach Brent would like to highlight. Watch the final of the U-18 Boys Sprint at Westerns. Take note of Grayson’s transition at the bottom of the hill–a strategy that earned him a Gold Medal. Congratulations Grayson!! The video

This is an unsupported race but Sean will be there to help coordinate technical needs.
Most families are opting, it sounds like, to stay at the Virginian Resort in Winthrop. Deals on Expedia.
Call Sean at 250-826-7390 if have questions. Especially to register as a non US citizen. There is a detailed PDF I haven’t figured out how to post.
Note: The wax policy is different in the States than here. U14 are no fluoro in glide zone at all (so LF is not allowed). For older you can use HF but no pucks or powders in the glide zone. No restrictions on the grip zone.
