Alpine Zone Ski Racing Team

[ga2ski]

Looks to me to be different divisions for tele, knuckledraggers and alpine.

Can we please retire the knuckle dragger thing..?

I have been snowboarding coming up on 20 years and have yet to drag my knuckles...

i knew that would get you going

I have only boarded three or four times. I dragged my knuckles, my butt, and knocked my self out twice. I believe they call it a mouse trap.

Glad we have 4. Pat's has great M&M cookies too.

Telemarkers don't shower...

So DMC and Ga2ski do have something in common. B---
busting and lack of showering. Sorry I thought about this all day and could not help it. J/K Thankx for keeping posts going in this file. We need 3 more people. Skiing at night is like cheating. You don't have to wait for the weekend. :beer:

I heard back from Pats'. Tele gear is fine just register as using tele gear. We would need to be at the mountian by 6.30 to race at 7pm. On the day of race you can ski anytime between 3 and 9pm. come on guys.

Yes, night skiing at Pats is really nice. Some good terrain...though their steep bump runs are not lit. Not yet at least :wink:

If it were a little closer than 3 hours away I'd be there! I've always thought that joining one of those racing leagues would be fun!

Brian your welcome to try a CT one at one of those resorts. There is a good base of folks in CT. I would help promote it. :idea:

I will leave this up for the week and then ask for outside involvement to get memebers. Come on gang this will be a blast.

Its crunch time here soon. Anyone else interested please send me a pm. Looks like tuesday is the day of choice here. This could be the most fun one can have midweek.... on snow.

Tuesday Night for how many weeks?

 

[riverc0il]

while i wouldn't be willing to make the treck to pats peak mid-week for beer league, i used to race in college and would enjoy taking some laps at an AZ gathering if the area has a nastar course. hopefully we can fit this into a gathering sometime, i haven't bashed gates in five years and part of me almost kinda misses it :lol:

 

[salida]

i raced at one time... no longer... but there is somethign about killing slalom gates that i love, smashing the shinners and slapping the gates with your hand. excellent

It has been over 20 years since I raced on some what of a competitive basis. This is an excuse to get out and get my b---- busted by Ga2ski and hang with Chile and so on and so forth. Anyone who can work it into the schedule, please do.
We started this as a Az night out idea with chile and TB last year. The race league would tie us to a set schedule and get us to really do a regular event. Ow rumours are Tree-Skier is a ringer.


I am very pysched about this. It will add 7 days to our totals. :wink: RivercOil.... I think the Nastar could work into an event. I'll work on that when we get closer to the season.

I got a few pm's from people thinking about it, so it stay open another week. Come on down. Chile's got the 1st round anyway, well maybe not. :wink:

 

[Starter Jackets Rule!]

need a ringer?

One of my favorite things about Stowe for the many years that I lived there was the Skibum series. There were a good 150 strong that participated with teams of 4 + alternates. It was great fun even though being a bump skier, I never was that accomplished at gate racing. Each week a different bar in town would hold an apres ski party after the races. They had a great handicapping system as well, so even if you weren't all that good - as long as you showed improvement throughout the year, you'd do well. The mountain even offered free clinics to help you out.

The competition was usually quite good with former NCAA champions in the mix. Dave Mirriam the ski school director at Stowe, somewhere in his late 40's now will still whoop a$$ against some of the younger fresh out of college NCAA champs.

Its things like this that make Stowe my favorite resort in the Northeast. There is no mountain that boasts as strong of a ski bum scene as Stowe. If you spent a winter living there, you'd see what I'm talking about.

If I lived near there, I'd definitely sign up. Hope you all have fun, I'm sure it will be a blast!

I think we have talked about this possibly on another board. My place in Campton is 10 min from PSU, as they call it these days. If you able to be there on Tues for the 7 weeks add your name. I have no intention of being serious about the competion. Just fun. Well as a of today. :wink:
