philfell Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 I just wanted to let you know that we will be having some USASA races in the area this year. The events will be on Jan. 25 at Park City Mt. Resort, and on Feb. 8 at Brighton. Both dates will have a two run G.S. in the morning and a two run slalom in the afternoon, as a added bonus the Park City G.S. will start at the same place that the Olympic PGS started. You can go the www.USASA.org for more info or contact me. Thanks, hope to see you there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utahcarver Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 Does each participant have to be a USASA member (in all USASA-sanctioned races)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philfell Posted January 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 Yes you need to be a USASA member. It's really hard to organize a race without haveing to be a member of some organization, the main reason for this is we need to have the event sanctioned because of insurance reasons.

Skully Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 What are the times of the events... I may be able to spectate, depending on the schedule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philfell Posted January 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 The schedule for the event at P.C. is posted on the www.USASA.org website, click on competitoin regions then select intermountain snowboard series. The schedule for the event at Brighton should be real similar. Why not race, Skully? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skully Posted January 15, 2004 Report Share Posted January 15, 2004 Phil, Thanks for the link, I was looking under Event Schedules, just not getting the start times there. Why not race? I got no $$$$. (well, maybe I could spare $25) I haven't chased sticks in a race course for 7 or 8 years either, I don't think I would know what to do any more...

I am glad they started talking about this early, not like last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utahcarver Posted January 16, 2004 Report Share Posted January 16, 2004 We'll have 2 - 4 carvers from up here in Frigidville, Utah (Logan) there in March. We may not make all the days but, are looking forward to riding PC and the Canyons again. The only thing I dislike about the SLC ski areas is skiers/boarders using cell phones while in motion. What the hell is up with that? Sometimes, technology sucks. Shut up and ride! Where's the best place to go for suds and food after a day on the hill? Or, is everyone brown-bagging it?

philfell Posted January 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2004 There is a good pizza place (it's called Davanza's)that is on Park Ave. less than a block from the town lift. You can ride down to it have some grub get a beer then get on the lift back to the main resort. Personally I get down to business on the hill then go home, I don't like to stop and start again.

eddie Posted January 26, 2004 Report Share Posted January 26, 2004 Hey Phil, Did the race happen yesterday with it snowing or did it get postponed? How did the team do (if the event happened)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philfell Posted January 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2004 Yeah we got the race off. Over-all it went really well. We started the G.S. five minutes behind schedule and the Slalom went off right on time. The turn out was smaller than I hoped for but in line with what I expected. The fastest male and female both came from the Park City Snowboard Team, Abby would have place 3rd overall in the Slalom, had she registared as a guy.

eddie Posted January 27, 2004 Report Share Posted January 27, 2004 Wish I could have seen it. Next time I run into you all practicing, I should sit and watch for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
