Hello Freeskiers!
As we are fully into comp season I wanted to take a minute to congratulate everyone for the skiing that has happened so far! There has been some great skiing out there, and I'm proud of you all for going out there and pushing your rider levels and taking a chance. It might not always end up in our favor, but it's great to see the work you all have been putting in. This weekend is going to be another brutally cold weekend. Jay Peak has postponed their 2* again from Sunday to Friday 2/27. The Mountain Team will cancel training this weekend because of the temps. We will try to offer training for those on the Comp and U12 teams on Saturday 9:30-2pm as long as the mountain is open. I will keep everyone on the Stack team app if the mountain has a delayed opening or if they decide not to open. Sunday does not look like the mountain will open with the windchill being around -40F, we will not have training in these conditions.
