Now that the dust has settled, can we talk about what a huge success the Lake Placid World Cup turned out to be?! The energy, the crowd, the weather, and the overall sense of community were not unnoticed.

Thank you for being there and for all of your support. We enjoyed seeing the bibs all around - it was hard not to smile.

What a way to wrap up the season πŸŒŸβ˜„οΈπŸ”₯

Top U.S. athletes competed at Junior Nationals as part of 10 divisional teams from across the country. Over six days of competition at the Birkie Trailhead, athletes in the U16, U18, and U20 age groups raced in conditions ranging from warm and sunny to cold and snowy.

The event schedule included a freestyle interval start, a classic sprint, a classic mass start, and concluded with a four-person mixed-gender freestyle relay.

Throughout the week, athletes delivered outstanding performances on the trails while also taking part in opening and closing ceremonies and social events that brought together racers, parents, and coaches from across the country.

Congratulations to all the athletes! πŸ‘πŸ‘

World Juniors/U23 kicked off yesterday in Lillehammer with the Men’s and Womens skate sprint. There were some exceptional results - with a 6th place finish, and Annelies Hanna both in the top 30.

World Juniors/U23 is one of our pillar projects, supporting developing pro and collegiate skiers.
