Who Said Park Skiers Can’t Race?! Nationals: Day 3-4 SkierX
With Slopestyle and Halfpipe finished, only one event remained; the intense discipline of SkierX.

Nationals – Day 1
After a glorious Sunday of 82 degree LA weather and sunburns at the beach, we headed off at 4:30AM to catch our flights to Denver. Clarey had a bit of an accident in Mammoth this past weekend so he’s up here wearing a neck brace and feeling things out – we are all wishing [...]
