Alpine Zone Ski Racing Team

[Vortex]

I put a blip about this in the Trips and Events folder. Pats' Peak has a weekly night Racing series. Takes place for 7 consecutive weeks starting in January. 7 member teams. $600 total cost for the team. (roughly $88 per person.) Covers skiing from 3 to 9 the day you race and an end of the year banquet. Teams race on mon-thurs depending on when you sign up an availiblity. 1 night per week same night each week.

Anyway... Ga2ki and ya me are in so far. Whom else is interested? pm me and add you name in here. This should be a blast. This kind of will be a guys/gals night out. Competition is not what its about for me. Getting a group out together is. I have not
raced in 20 plus years myself.

I hate racing... Too much standing around for me..

Sounds like a good idea for those that are into it though!

couldnt do it anyway... must be 21 , not that i would be able to do it anyway... Ya racing doesnt seem that interesting to me anyway, maybe if you just do a few runs with not much waiting, then you ski the rest of the time it would be cool...

Kind of my point Austin a couple of runs and then we hang together. Sorry the situation won't work for ya.
Thankx for takin the time to respond guys.

That sounds like fun, I wish I lived closer. I've raced NASTAR the last few seasons and really enjoy it.

I might be interested but it would make for a long drive home (to W. Dover, VT) not so far from work (Keene, NH)

Unfortunately, you'll have to count me out for this season. This sounds like fun, but I think I'm still too much of a newbie.

As icy as Twister was last year and as steep as the FIS trail is, at this point I'd be lucky to get down without falling all over myself...

You kidding me sounds like your qualified. Your welcome no matter what. Heck you could almost car pool with me.

wished I was closer, I would join ya! We did it at Shawnee Peak for a few years, and had a blast. Unfortunately we lost half the team due to injuries, people moving, lack of interest.

Too Far for me. I work in Western MA. It's an hour and 40 minute trip to Pat's for me from my house.

 

[tree_skier]

As I said in the events/trips section. I plan to compete on my tele gear. not sure how fast that will be. I may have to buy some new alpine gear if I decide to get competitive. i just plan on getting to ski 7 more times this winter.

Oh wait I just read the rules, looks like I can race all year on my teles. Looks to me to be different divisions for tele, knuckledraggers and alpine. I think you have to race on the same gear all year.

I have heard that there are some race leagues where you race on all 3 types of gear, Anyone know of any of these? Which sounds like fun to me, but I would definitely need to work on my boarding.

Anyway. Looks like we have three. We need at least two more to have team, but 7 would be best. If we can not fill the team with people from the site, I think i could get a friend or two to join us.

How far it Pat's from Hanover. I bet closer than Boston. Hint Chilemass where the heck are you also.
We have a lounge to explore. :dunce:

Yeah, Pats is closer. So maybe a visit every once in a while...not much $$$ or time for skiing next season...
