  • Ancient Skiers Book 2014
    Second Edition - 2014 INTRODUCTION When I was asked if I would write the history of the Ancient Skiers, I was excited and willing. My husband, Jim, and I were a part of those early skiers during those memorable times. We had “been there and done that” and it was time to put it down on paper for future generations to enjoy. Yes, we were a part of The Ancient Skiers and it is a privilege to be able to tell you about them and the way things were. Life was different - and it was good! I met Jim on my first ski trip on the Milwaukee Ski Train to the Ski Bowl in 1938. He sat across the aisle and had the Sunday funnies - I had the cupcakes - we made a bond and he taught me to ski. We were married the next year. Jim became Certified as a ski instructor at the second certification exam put on by the Pacific Northwest Ski Association (PNSA) in 1940, at the Ski Bowl. I took the exam the next year at Paradise in 1941, to become the first woman in the United States to become a Certified Ski Instructor. Skiing has been my life, from teaching students, running a ski school, training instructors, and most of all being the Executive Secretary for the Pacific Northwest Ski Instructors Association (PNSIA) for over 16 years. I ran their Symposiums for 26 years, giving me the opportunity to work with many fine skiers from different regions as well as ski areas. Jim and I helped organize the PNSIA and served on their board for nearly 30 years.

  • Nella Storia Dello Sci Sci Alpino
    ATOMIC.COM PRESS RELEASE 18_03_2013 MARCEL HIRSCHER E MIKAELA SCHIFFRIN: NELLA STORIA DELLO SCI SCI ALPINO. CON I SECONDI POSTI IN GIGANTE (IERI) E IN SLALOM SPECIALE (OGGI) A LENZERHEIDE (SVI) L'ATLETA AUSTRIACO CONCLUDE LA SUA FANTASTICA STAGIONE RICEVENDO "UFFICIALMENTE" LA COPPA DI SLALOM E QUELLA ASSOLUTA. E VINCENDO LA CLASSIFICA ASSOLUTA PER IL SECONDO ANNO CONSECUTIVO, ENTRA A PIENO TITOLO NELLA STORIA DELLO SCI. IN CAMPO FEMMINILE ATOMIC CONQUISTA LA COPPA DEL MONDO DI SLALOM CON LA DICIOTTENNE MIKAELA SCHIFFRIN, TERZA GIOVANE DI SEMPRE A RIUSCIRCI Marcel Hirscher a Lenzerheide (SVI) conclude la sua straordinaria stagione di Coppa del Mondo, e lo fa con un due secondi posti: Slalom Gigante (sabato 16 marzo) e Slalom Speciale (oggi). Proprio in questa località nel 2007 esordì nel massimo circuito dello sci e nello stesso luogo, sei anni dopo, è entrato nella storia dello "sport bianco" perché è il decimo sciatore di sempre a conquistare per due anni consecutivi la Coppa del Mondo di Sci Alpino. Hirscher scrive dunque il suo nome a fianco dei "grandissimi" di questo sport che prima di lui fecero "doppietta" consecutiva, parliamo (in ordine cronologico) di Jean-Claude Killy, Karl Schranz, Gustavo Thoeni, Ingemar Stenmark, Phil Mahre, Marc Girardelli, Pirmin Zurbriggen, Hermann Maier e Stephan Eberharter. Senza dubbio è stato un cammino esaltante quello del 24enne austriaco in questa stagione, infatti, guardando il tabellino, va segnalato come su 20 gare di Coppa del Mondo in cui ha preso il via è riuscito a salire sul podio ben 18 volte (6 vittorie, 10 secondi posti, 2 terzi posti), che gli sono valse la Coppa del Mondo di Slalom (ottenuta con il secondo posto nella prova di Kranjska Gora del 10 marzo scorso) e quella "Assoluta".

  • BOT Meeting Materials
    USSTF Board of Trustees' Meeting The Sonnenalp, Vail, Colorado December 3-7, 2014 Welcome Letter December 1, 2014 I would like to welcome you to the annual U.S. Ski and Snowboard Team Foundation Board of Trustees' meeting in Vail/Beaver Creek. We have an exciting few days ahead, including the Audi Birds of Prey race this week. After a very successful Olympic year, our athletes spent the summer training at camps around the world in preparation for the FIS Nordic World Championships in Falun, SWE, the FIS Freestyle and Snowboarding World Championships in Kreischberg, AUT and the FIS Alpine World Championships right here in Vail/Beaver Creek. The 2015 season started off on a high note with Mikaela Shiffrin’s GS win at the World Cup opener in Soelden. We had a great turn out at the Nature Valley First Tracks for the U.S. Alpine Ski Team naming at Copper Mountain. Our Foundation Officers, my staff and I are continuing to evolve the format of the board meeting to encourage further involvement, input and discussion from our board members. Similar to the summer meeting format, the chairs of each standing committee will be reporting on the work done in their areas of leadership. Additionally, the working groups created to address questions concerning "direct to athlete" as well as sport-specific giving have been meeting regularly and will report their conclusions. The meeting will also include an executive session designed to allow you to ask me questions in a confidential and privileged setting. I hope you will take this opportunity to engage with us.
