✨ THE SLIDES ✨

The stars aligned this past weekend for NYSEF’s U10/12 groups at Whiteface and the slides opened silver status!

Our athletes crushed beacon training at NYSEF HQ, and were ready for the challenge! Athletes were placed in small groups, each carrying an avalanche beacon, accompanied by a coach carrying a beacon/shovel/probe, before making the storied boot pack into the slides from the summit chair.

Athletes often spend years looking at the slides from the summit lift and hearing stories about skiing them from their coaches and friends, dreaming of those magical elusive turns and hoping for them to open on a weekend! It is truely an experience we’ll never forget!

Congratulations to all our athletes who conquered the slides on Sunday, and THANK YOU to ski patrol and management for an unforgettable season of skiing so far! We are incredibly lucky to have the best terrain in the East to train and explore on! ✨

NYSEF Olympic Heritage: Vancouver ‘10

Sixteen years ago today, NYSEF’s Billy Demong made history yet again as the first American to win GOLD in Nordic Combined at the Olympic Games. Billy jumped 127 meters, scoring 115.5 points in his large hill jump, putting him in 6th position leading into the 10 kilometer cross country race. With over 45 seconds to make up on the leader at the start, Billy skied the race of his life, finding his way to the front of the race within 4 kilometers, and eventually winning by 4 seconds over US teammate Johnny Spillane. 🇺🇸

*Nordic Combined is still the only sport at the Winter Olympic Games that does not allow Women to compete.
