Are you unsure you have the guts... or the ability to ski the descent? Come and give it a shot!
Pre-ski, practice, observe and record the Stowe Derby descent. Come and feel what it is like to tackle those turns on skinny skis, and hopefully figure out that it is not so bad, AND the most fun you'll ever have on skis!
Ski alone or with one of the three groups. Coaches will be available to offer tips to skiers. Get the inside scoop on how to get an edge over other racers, and locate and ascertain strategic features to dominate the thrilling downhill portion of this amazing ski race.
All participants please meet at the base of the Look Out Chair at Stowe Mountain Resort (top of the stairs above the Base Lodge) and be ready to ski at 2 pm sharp. Cross-Country skis are welcome but participants are asked to stay on the Auto Toll Road. One run per participant. Plan your own transportation back to your car if you decide to ski past the parking lot. Dress warmly, this is a descent ONLY.
This FREE event is possible because of the generosity of the Stowe Mountain Resort. A $5 donation is suggested and will benefit to VTXC. For more information, visit: http://www.stowederby.com/images/pdf/recon2016.pdf or contact stowederby@teammmsc.org.
