    Celebrating and Preserving the History and Heritage of Maine Skiing • Winter 2017 SKI MUSEUM OF MAINE Bean Boost: Maine’s iconic outdoor retailer major factor in skiing history By Scott Andrews Editor, Snow Trail For more than a century, L.L. Bean has been identified with Maine’s sporting heritage, especially hunting, fishing and general outdoor recreation. And for many of those 100-plus years, the company’s role went much further than selling top-quality goods. L.L. Bean also actively promoted and spread the gospel of outdoor recreation via lessons, programs and sponsorships. So it should come as no surprise to learn that Maine’s iconic outdoor retailer also boosts the sport of skiing in a major way. The story of that Bean boost began in the 1920s and continues to the present. This issue of Snow Trail Leon Leonwood Bean (left), founder and namesake of Freeport’s traces the history of the company’s famous outdoor retail firm, is pictured with an unidentified man at a 1947 contest which awarded a trophy to boys and girls for involvement. proficiency in skiing.

  • Industry Vs. Lifestyle: a Sociological Study of Downhill Snow Skiing in North America
    INDUSTRY VS. LIFESTYLE: A SOCIOLOGICAL STUDY OF DOWNHILL SNOW SKIING IN NORTH AMERICA Adam L. Roossien Plan II Honors Undergraduate Thesis College of Liberal Arts The University of Texas at Austin May 2017 __________________________________________ Ben Carrington Department of Sociology Supervising Professor __________________________________________ Thomas Hunt Department of Kinesiology and Health Education Second Reader ABSTRACT Author: Adam L. Roossien Title: Industry vs. Lifestyle: A Sociological Study of Downhill Snow Skiing in North America Supervising Professors: Ben Carrington & Thomas Hunt Since the year 2000, the price of downhill snow skiing has risen nearly 200%. Over the last five years, this price escalation has picked up, and the price of downhill snow skiing has risen 75%. This change is being driven by large snow skiing corporations who have led a movement of commercialization and consolidation in the industry. Vail Resorts is the largest of these corporations, owning over 50% of the $3.2 billion industry. As the major giant of the industry, Vail Resorts has experienced tremendous financial success as a result of snow skiing’s recent corporatization. However, this corporatization is leading to the severe marginalization and destruction of snow skiing subculture. Due to downhill snow skiing’s foundational dependence on its rich and distinct subculture, this cultural destruction is causing a deterioration of the sport itself. This thesis engages in a sociological study of the modern downhill snow skiing industry, examining issues of lifestyle sport culture, social power, corporate strategy, and cultural impact. The research exhibited herein consolidates the fragmented bodies of lifestyle sport and snow skiing literature, and draws on primary interviews and observational data.

Ski Binding Suspension System for Vertical Load Transmission A Major Qualifying Project Report submitted to the faculty of Worcester Polytechnic Institute in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science. Submitted By: Madison Healey, Matthew Newell, Kendra O’Malley, and Connor O’Neill Advisor: Christopher A. Brown ABSTRACT The objective of this project is to use axiomatic design to design, prototype, and test a plate to absorb vertical loads to reduce anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), tibial plateau, and back injuries and avoid inadvertent heel release, by absorbing vertical loads and fore-aft torques while skiing. Conventional bindings do not protect against these three injuries, which can be expensive and keep people from skiing. One of the two main ACL injury mechanisms is the boot induced anterior drawer (BIAD), where an anterior shear load at the knee is produced by a forward torque transmitted from the tail of the ski, through a boot stiff in backward lean (Bere et al., 2011; Webster and Brown 1996).

    Small & Independent Ski Brands: Quick Impressions Of Selected Models Killington, Vermont December, 2013 ExoticSkis.com ExoticSkis.com – Killington Test Fest 2013 Report The Beast Returns 155 trails stretching over 73 miles (135km). 3050 vertical feet. 22 lifts enabling 38,315 riders per hour. Very often one of the first areas to open and the last to close.1 Killington has had a long and storied history over the decades, including hosting some very large on-snow demo day events. The last decade or so saw these consumer demo days fade away, and the annual Killington ski and snowboard demo events became fewer and fewer. Whether this was due to some general downturn in economic vitality in the industry, or devotion of promotional energy to other pursuits (or combination of both and other factors) we don't know, but December 2013 saw the Marketing and Events Departments at “The Beast of the East” get fired up and put on their most vigorous attempt at a serious on-snow demo day “Test Fest” in many years. According to many folks who follow Killington's activities rather closely, 2012-2013 saw a definite upswing in the promotional and marketing efforts of the resort to become more relevant, more modern and embrace digital technology for communicating the Resort's features, events and new corporate attitude to the hundreds of thousands of skiers within an easy drive to Vermont. “Test Fest” 2013 was Killington's shot across the bow of the other ski areas in the region, and according to skiers and some smaller ski companies we talked to over the two days, they were happy it was fired.
