Like I said, I don't wanna claim but Tanner Coulter, and me Patty B, won the Vail Free Flow Tour and since it was in Vail there was no NS coverage. Don't get me wrong, I bet the one a Big Boulder was sick... But there were dubs, cab 10's, 450 disasters, 12's, mad rodeo 9's and even a switch 12 all being stomped in Vail. Please cover the WHOLE GFFT NS.
good for them kid, but you really need to get out more and start understanding that your friends aren't the only kids throwing switch 12's and dubs and Vail is not the best ski resort. It sucks they didnt cover it but theres a lot of events NS doesnt cover, get over it.
This. Kind of curious why all the hate on Ski Club. I coach for Vail Devo, so I'm like a second class citizen, but I still respect these guys for how good they are. We were back in Outer Mongolia building a booter on the day of the comp but did see the warm ups and the stuff that was being thrown was ill. Stoked it got some coverage and like Patty said; stoked that Vail is finally putting some decent comps on again. Ski Club has a landing pad now which is really stepping up the progression for their kids.
Problem for my program is that Vail Resorts is going uber conservative. Helmets are now mandatory for anyone skiing in any VR program; any kid in a VR program under the age of 13 has to ride the lift with an adult; if someone bumps into you in the lift line, you pretty much have to fill out an incident report. Sorry for the rant. Props to Tanner and Patty.
Just because someone else did not write an article about an event doesnt mean you dont have to write your own. Just submit it to an admin and they would be happy to post it up!
