Fragile Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 I'm a junior rider that is looking to move into Hardboot to compete this year. Spent last season (for what it was worth) training on them to transition over. I have great instuctors, but looking for someone that specializes in Hardboot GS/SL racing. My home mountain is Massanutten. Any help would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mellow Yellow Posted December 2, 2017 Report Share Posted December 2, 2017 Not many riders in these southern hills... my home "mountain" is Beech in NC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fragile Posted December 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2017 We may head down for a BX race down at App Ski Mtn this season but USASA Southeastern Series doesn’t even hold SL and GS Races. It’s why I asked once Bomber came back up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mellow Yellow Posted January 6, 2018 Report Share Posted January 6, 2018 I have a pass to App this season, it is a mole hill but close to home. Let me know if you ever make it down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fragile Posted January 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2018 Would that be Appalachian Ski in Blowing Rock, NC? im coming down there for a BX race the last weekend in January Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mellow Yellow Posted January 6, 2018 Report Share Posted January 6, 2018 Yep! Likely I will be there, assuming the weather is good. As we get closer to the date, I'll check back in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fragile Posted January 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 Hey. Weather is looking to be rainy right now, but I’ll still bring my volk rentiger to ride just in case. Hopefully the weather will improve and you can come out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fragile Posted January 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 I’ve got BX races during the day. Haven’t seen a schedule so not sure when they expect to be done. Hopefully it works out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fragile Posted January 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2018 I’ll tell mom that I’d like to get there early for a couple runs with you, if you’re still going to come with the expected weather. If you’ll let me know Friday night by 9 pm that would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beckmann AG Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 Do you have any decent footage of your riding? Specific goals and/or apparent needs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, no I don’t have video. My goal is to compete at Nationals in hard boots this coming season. I’d like to make the top 10 next season. I was 15th in SL and GS this year in softboots.
