I took my run from the website and put it here because the player is a little slow, so here’s my GS run from the Champs.




Having not done GS for a while before this race I can already see some old bad habits creeping into my skiing but I held it together pretty well!




Nakiska Nationals DH Training Vid

» Kananaskis, AB

The Canadian Nationals are in Nakiska, Alberta, this season. The first DH training run was held today on the Map Maker trail. It’s a very easy downhill track but is pretty fun nonetheless, and sometimes the easy courses are the hardest to be fast on! I had a good run today, finishing third with a 56.96. Manny won the run with 56.60, with Erik right on his tails in 56.64. Tomorrow is another training run with the race on Monday.

"Just when I thought you couldn't possibly be any dumber, you go and do something like this... and totally redeem yourself!" Kind of how I felt after messing up in the first Super G and redeeming myself in the second! Ahh too many great quotes from that movie..

Anyways here is video of the 2nd downhill training run in Aspen. The snow was a little firmer today, making the course nearly 3 seconds faster. All in all a fairly easy, but super fun track.

Moving over to Lake Louise in an hour to forerun the World Cup downhill training run tomorrow! After that I go to Colorado for the first Norams of the season. Feeling pretty good going into them and I'm excited to get the season started!
A few highlights from Pano this past week:

Nakiska Update

» Kananaskis, AB

Nakiska has been great so far this year! Quite a change from last year when condtions weren't great for the most part, this year has been pretty stellar as far as conditions and training go. They opened up a different run this year to start off, which I think was a good idea because it allowed for much safer training and gave them more time to set up the other runs.

I've been here for nine days so far and have skied eight. I've skied every event so far which is awesome. And I've finally been able to get a bunch of slalom training in, something I've been severely lacking in this season! We even got in a day of downhill. We have been doing double sessions almost every day though, which gets super tiring and I could really use a day off soon!

I'm staying here in Nakiska for one more day of GS, then heading to Panorama for a FIS GS race on saturday. After that I'll be in Pano for a few more days, and finally forerunning the final training run of the Lake Lousie Winterstart World Cup. Should be fun!

Here's one last run of SG from Nakiska:

The video from Stubai is now live on the site. You can check it out here or on the

We managed to get a few decent days in at the end. The snow was pretty soft, but soft snow is better than skiing on rocks!
