While pandemic regulations canceled nationals and some other competitions, Team Summit Executive Director C.B. Bechtel said it was encouraging that Team Summit was able to host its first race series of the season at Breckenridge Ski Resort on Monday, Jan. 11 and Tuesday, Jan. 12. Bechtel described the race season as “normal, just being run a little bit different.”
Bechtel said Team Summit mogul skiers were also able to compete in Aspen this weekend, their second competition of the season.
The organization’s snowboard and freeski athletes are the most affected by the cancellation of the national competition. Team Summit Snowboard Program Director Matt Voegtle said the USASA’s regional and Futures Tour contests will keep many of his snowboarders busy through the season.
