It is well known that athletes from a specific region or country are dominating certain sports disciplines such as marathon running or Ironman triathlon; however, little relevant information exists on cross-country skiing. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate the aspect of region and nationality in one of the largest cross-country skiing marathons in Europe, the “Engadin Ski Marathon.” All athletes ( = 197,125) who finished the “Engadin Ski Marathon” between 1998 and 2016 were considered. More than two-thirds of the finishers (72.5% in women and 69.6% in men) were Swiss skiers, followed by German, Italian, and French athletes in both sexes. Most of the Swiss finishers were from Canton of Zurich (20.5%), Grisons (19.2%), and Berne (10.3%).

  • 2021-22 NYSEF Freeride Program Info
    2021 - 2022 NYSEF Freeride Program We use the term Freeride to define the many disciplines within the sports of skiing and snowboarding not related to traditional nordic or alpine ski racing. Below are descriptions of each of the disciplines and some of the terminology used to describe each. Freestyle skiing – The foundation for what we call Freestyle skiing are the traditional sports of Moguls(M) and Aerials(A). The word “freestyle '' can also be used as a general term to describe snowboarding & skiing disciplines such as Halfpipe, Slopestyle, & Railjam which involves tricks, jumps, and terrain park features, such as rails, boxes, jibs, or other obstacles. Slopestyle (SS) – a judged skiing/snowboarding event held on a terrain-park course consisting of a variety of jumps, boxes, and rails. Skiercross (SX) – Also called Ski Cross. Downhill race with as many as six athletes in a heat on a course consisting of a variety of jumps, banked turns, and rollers. Athletes are normally seeded by way of an individual time trial prior to heat racing. The top athletes in each heat advance to the next round while the others are eliminated. Boardercross (BX) – Also called Snowboard Cross (SBX). Same as above with snowboarders. Railjam(RJ)(R) – Railjams are ski and/or snowboard events held solely on rails or box features in a jam-style format. In this format athletes take as many runs as possible in a predetermined time period and may or may not proceed to a final round. Can be judged by a panel of judges or by the competitors themselves.

  • Introduction to Ski Cross
    INTRODUCTION TO SKI CROSS INTRODUCTION 3 SPORT ORGANIZATIONS 4 COMPETITOR LICENSING, REGISTRATION, AND INSCRIPTION 5 COACH AND OFFICIALS EDUCATION AND REQUIREMENTS 6 RULES, REGULATIONS, AND RACE FORMAT 6 SKI CROSS TRAINING ELEMENTS 6 EQUIPMENT 10 SAFETY GUIDELINES 11 CONTACTS 11 CLUBS AND PROGRAMS WITH KNOWN SKI CROSS PROGRAMS 12 BACKGROUND & EXPLANATION OF SKI CROSS 12 2 Introduction Are you looking for new training and competition avenues for alpine ski athletes, or to develop new movement patterns with any ski athlete? Ski Cross is an excellent event option to explore. Ski Cross is quickly gaining popularity and has been approved to move from Freestyle and Freeski to a discipline under Alpine at the FIS level. Ski Cross is an exciting discipline that involves all aspects of ski racing and freeskiing, combined with the added element of racing side by side. Competitors inspect and train the course prior to the event day and oftentimes will have advanced training sessions similar to speed events for FIS events. Competition day training is common at the grassroots (entry) level. In the United States, entry level Ski Cross racing is delivered through the United States of America Snowboard and Freeski Association (USASA). FIS level racing and above is delivered through U.S. Ski & Snowboard. Ski Cross presents a simple programming opportunity for any club with athletes who like to go fast, rip varied terrain, and will enable them to develop a diverse skill set. Ski Cross can serve as an excellent growth opportunity for any skier and is especially well suited to athletes with an Alpine ski racing foundation.

  • PRESIDENT's LETTER Covering the White Winter World WELCOME
    July 11, 2019 PRESIDENT’S LETTER Covering The White Winter World When the Eastern Slope Inn in North Conway, N.H., hosted the first organizational meeting of the Eastern Ski Writers Association in September 1962, the focus was clearly on covering skiing, then best defined as alpine downhill. Today if you write, blog, broadcast, photograph, video, Tweet or Insta to cover a winter sport or leisure pastime that occurs on snow, you’ll find a home at NASJA. Yes, we’re talking about you competitive or non-competitive alpine skiing, Nordic skiing, dog sledding, ski jumping, ski orienteering, snowboarding, snowshoeing, uphilling, fat biking, even snow dancing. Snowmobiling not so much, but we’ve expanded the definition of snowsports in the past, and can do so again as popular leisure activities change with the times. We service the needs of our readers, viewers and online users with news and information they can use to decide how to spend those precious few hours in the white winter world when they’re not sleeping, eating, working, doing housework, in school, or dare we say, zoned out in front of a screen. NASJA members take pride in helping the North American consumer get the most out of their free time, a most treasured commodity. So if you’re a journalist who covers snowsports, help us make NASJA your organization, one that services your needs best. - Jeff Blumenfeld NASJA President WELCOME PETE PA NDOLI, NEW NA SJA TREA SURER The NASJA board is pleased to announce the selection of new treasurer Pete Pandoli, from Moseley, Virginia.
