Snowbird, UT. Intermountain Competition
Friday: Halfpipe
The Bogus team had three kids
entered into the halfpipe competition. The kids had a great time
with this farley new event even though they don't have the facilities
to train as much as some of the other mountains do. Despite our
lack of training the Bogus Team took home two medals, a first and a second. Congratulations
to Megan Marks and Nat Steven for a job well done.
Saturday: Moguls
The Team discovered a new use for the
Suburban while waiting an hour for the canyon to open due to avalanche
danger,
Wall Ball. After finally making it to the hill the athletes made good
use of their time, the competition was cut to one run due to possible
avalanche danger above the mogul run. The
Bogus Team was able to bringing home another two medals. Good job to
Nat Steven for a second and Ryan Hofstetter for a third.
Sunday: Dual Moguls
A difficult but encouraging
day for the athletes and Coach. After a full weekend of skiing the Bogus
Team seemed a little
sluggish. They made a lot of improvements this competition with
their technique and mind set but were unable to capture any medals. Congratulations
to all the athletes that competed and we look forward to next week's
competition in Sun Valley.
