Even though there is no snow in the greater part of snow country, the resorts are still open, lifts are spinning and there is skiing to be had out there! We’ve been out to the local resorts and are pretty impressed with the quality of the snow surfaces – props to all the snowmaking teams out there for giving us the opportunity to get out there and slide around.

The MOST SNOW and BEST SNOW in the country right now is at Snowbird, UT!!!  There are still a couple of spots open on the NASTC Snowbird Performance Skiing Camp in January (19-23).  You can register now by going to the NASTC website and fill out the registration form or you can call the NASTC office directly 530-582-4772.  www.skiNASTC.com

Our guide in Chamonix sent us a message saying that it is dumping over there and the mountains are looking good.  Reserve your spot now for the NASTC-Chamonix, Adventure in the Alps course, March 23-31.

Here is a link to Chris Fellows’ webinar that was broadcasted last week.  If you missed the broadcast or would like to hear it again, just click on the link and it will take you directly to a recording of the webinar.  Lots of valuable information on what you need to do in order to perform your best and maximize your improvement.
