patmoore Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 Despite torn ACL, MCL, meniscus and fracture in knee bone and cartilage the doctor has cleared me for Winter Park! I can resume racing with a knee brace. Flight is booked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scrutton Posted February 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 More or less :- "The Resort Rankings are used to qualify Alpine racers for the Nature Valley NASTAR National Championships. Participants receive a Resort Ranking at each resort where they race after completing just ONE Nature Valley NASTAR race. Participants qualify if they are ranked in the top three in their age & gender category in their division at any Nature Valley NASTAR resort as of Tuesday, February 16, 2010. " In my case I qualified as #2 in 2 people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smaynard Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 I think I'll be there. Yet to register. Anyone ridden the Nastar course at WP before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arneburner Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 I qualified on the NASTAR course at WP and Copper MT. The WP course is on Bashor. It is fairly flat, but the day I raced it, it was set with the gates way off set, ie very turny. I believe that the national snowboard course will be set on Lower Cramner run which is a bit steeper. Don't know how it will be set. I plan on attending, as I had a good time at Steamboat last year. Arne:lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flygirl Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 Hi I will be there racing in snowboarding so glad it is in WP and not Steamboat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinecure Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Just curious, do they use snowboard gates for Nastar at Nationals? We just got Nastar back in NorCal at Alpine Meadows and I've been sort of tempted to take a few laps on a board. The course is pretty easy and I know I could rip it up, even with tall gates. I've run it a few times on skis just for fun when I take students through as a training exercise. And, is Nationals held in CO every year?

flygirl Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Hi yes NASTAR Championships have been in CO for the last 5 years. At Winter Park this year. You could rip it up on this Donek board. It is all tuned up and ready for someone to really do some carving on it. I only rode it once and prefer my softie stuff. Let me know if you are interested.

patmoore Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 And, is Nationals held in CO every year? I started attending at Park City in 2004. There were a few years when they weren't held but here's the history as far as I could determine. Note: Only once in the east (1971). 2010 Winter Park 2009 Steamboat 2008 Steamboat 2007 Steamboat 2006 Steamboat 2005 Park City 2004 Park City 2003 Park City 2002 Park City 2001 Beaver Creek 2000 Beaver Creek 1999 ? 1998 Snowmass 1997 ? 1996 ? 1995 ? 1994 ? 1993 ? 1992 ? (Ironically there was a National Snowboarding Pacesetter in 1992 - Kevin Delaney) 1991 Snowbird 1990 Winter Park 1989 Beaver Creek 1988 Steamboat 1987 Snowmass 1986 Keystone 1985 Sun Valley 1984 Aspen 1983 Steamboat 1982 (not held) 1981 Heavenly 1980 Vail 1979 Park City 1978 Squaw Valley 1977 Keystone 1976 Snowmass 1975 Steamboat 1974 Sun Valley 1973 Alpine Meadows 1972 Aspen Highlands 1971 Mt.

patmoore Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 I put together a video of last year's event. There's a lot of just people pictures of friends but there is some limited footage of snowboard racing. One of the joys of going out there is rubbing elbows with former US Team members and Olympians. In this video you might recognize Daron Rahlves, AJ Kitt, Heidi Voelker, Dian Roffe, Billy Kidd, and Doug Lewis. In other years I've had the pleasure of chatting with Phil Mahre, Casey Puckett, Bryon Friedman, Chad Fleisher, Debbie Armstrong and many more.

Guest shrederjen Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 I pulled the trigger! I'm there! Welcome to Bomber, Flygirl! Looks like the 'older snowboard women' (but young at heart!) will have a good showing! I trust I will also see you guys in Ta Hell You Ride, following NASTAR?

scrutton Posted March 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Yeah, I'm not going, which is pretty lame, seeing as how I started the thread. I wanna see some pics though. Maybe next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
