If you need a distraction from the election, check this:

We've had some great days of technical free skiing and drill work at the U-16/14 Loveland Camp.

And if you're wondering what your kids are eating for lunch, this is a big hit:
'Smashburger' burgers, fries, and shakes are pretty darn good!

Vail GS train

Kraig's group had a great day up at Vail training GS with the GMVS crew while the rest of our athletes were training hard up at Loveland. It was extremely busy on the hill and the Vail folks seem to manage this well with good coordination and cooperation amongst coaches. We had the men's USST training SL in the far right lane, next to them was the WC Canadian women, then our lane. -see picture below. The boys did a good job being focused, but I am grateful we have such a nice connection with Loveland where the training is a little less busy and it's easier to do quality coaching without added distractions.



Pic of the day is Chris McKenna getting crazy with some outside ski balance.
