Alpine Snowboard Teams

Recommended Posts

Sounds good to me. I am pretty frustrated that every official mountain based team is only up to 18 years of age. What, my money isn't good?! I am a late comer (relatively, I guess. I am 26) to hardbooting, and want to progress as fast as possible. Obviously a team is the best way to do that. I was thinking about trying to set something up at Blue Hills or Nashoba. SKi Ward works as well, although its a little further out.

Too bad you aren't out in our area. Chris Karol's FAST team is setting up to work with riders aged 10 thru masters. If you're looking for a vacation plan, check us next winter. http://fastsnowboarding.com

Just be in the PBR next December. Show up at 7:30am, with your hardhat and lunch pail and we'll take it from there. Listen, spoke when spoken too and you'll be ripping by April. Tuition for the "knock you down then build you back up" program will be 8 bud lights per Saturday. We guarantee result !

Rules:

Don't dress like a retard (gleb rule)

No ego's (T32 members only can strut)

7:30am de briefing Saturday in the PBR

Gfy and we'll see you in the fall.

@ Loup Loup Ski Hill

in North central Washington [state]

Last year was first, had 8 boys ages 7-14. We went to one GS race and hosted one. Big hit so far and will be growing next year, already have more kids and some adults who want to be on the team for next season.

Focus is carving, gates, and free-riding. Hoping to get some BX going in the future.

We will be hosting a GS race this winter, might be the only one in the state????

time to resurrect this thread. Want to make sure this is updated with what is currently available for young racers to get involved in racing in the US, Canada and Internationally.

Please add a current team, or update the coach or contact info.

Just putting the finishing touches on the " LMMRP "Loon Mtn Masters race program tomorrow. I guess i passed the background check :eek: what probably threw them off my scent was that I was a suitcase from 1996 thru 2005.

I will have the excact details panned out after the weekend. Pass holders can join the club for around a couple hundred dollars, which is what we were hopig for. Training will be every saturday and sunday morning from 8am -12pm. Break for lunch and then freeride in the afternoon. Drop-ins are welcome, working that out also.

Check in with us at the romper room thread if you want to stop by, the NH,VT, ME rideboard.

Team 32 is working to put together a Master Racing program for next season. We are working out our options now and hope to have some details available soon.

Does this mean that you will be coaching? And are you going to be racing that new Kessla as well? Let me know when you will be coming to CO again.

Thats Alpine resort in Ontario that Derek is helping out with. Pretty stoked he's around again. He had a great program 10 years ago, and its showing in the Alpine team again, now strong the team is so quickly. Jonah and Danielle are a big part of that team too. Danielle will be the NorAm coach this season, with Jonah and Derek helping out more locally.

Anyone from New England interested in informal gate training? Plan on visiting Okemo this winter. On most weekends I set dual GS NASTAR courses - one with traditional ski gates and one with stubbies. Make unlimited runs for $12 plus lift ticket.

I'm psyched to kick off the new season!
