Update
The Big Sky Ski team concluded a very strong season with
three races. It was an amazing year for the Big Sky Ski team, culminating in
winning the overall title in the Northern Division. Over the course of the
season, the team saw incredible improvements and success in every age
group.
There is one more week of training left in Big Sky, and then
one would think ski racing is over but it actually never stops. There will be
skiing in June at Beartooth Pass, a camp at Mount Hood, Oregon, in July and a
camp in Chile this August.
The team will be back on snow full-time by mid-to-end of
October in Colorado. Between the camps the team does dryland training three to
four times a week. Dryland training includes mountain biking, running, strength
and agility training.
Coaches and team members are already looking forward to next
year’s race season. The team will miss four of our senior racers who will be
moving on to college. Congratulations and thank you to Mackenzie Winters,
Madison Winters, Maci St. Cyr and Sam Johnson.
