Qualifying is how they select the top 16, as well as how they pair up people of seemingly similar ability for the duels.

Only if you qualify in the top 16
That's why I want to get started around 11 am to get some skiing in as well as ski the course a bit. Unless you advance, there's a fair amount of waiting during the comp. There are some lags here and there however while waiting for people to get back to the top so you can always sneak in a run then if you don't mind missing the next few heats. As long as you have a number, they'll let you onto Temptor whether you've qualified or been knocked out or not. It will be roped off at the Nor'easter merge for the general skiing public.
Will there be an athletes lounge?

Kinda just hang at the top or the bottom. BYOB.
I might have to fill a back pack with beer. This way I can have some cold refreshments while watching the final rounds of the comp :beer:
I will lug some Bud lites. if anybody else would like some let me know?
Party on Wayne!
Party on Garth!
you might get more points from the judges if you skied the run _while_ drinking a beer...
Hmmm maybe I should wear one of those beer dispensing helmets?? Anybody have one I could use?
I wore this:
On Halloween... so I kind of have a beer helmet (and yes, you can actually dispense beer from it).

Nice!! I could wear that and create a new trick off the kicker and call it the “keg toss”
Another failed attempt at humor on my part.
:roll: Why don't you just wear this one and call the trick the "jackass":
:lol: :razz:
