U14 Race Day Jan 31st 🎿

Thanks to Mt.Cascades for pulling off a successful race day with a shuttle bus in place of a lift!

2 weekends, 2 race days, and 6 big smiles (ok, buffs are up but they are still smiling…)⛷️

“Train Smart, Train Hard, Train Together” shows up in different ways every day on snow.

On Sunday at Calabogie Peaks, GS training in extreme cold called for Train Smart. We adapted with indoor warm-ups, frequent check-ins, and a buddy system for all ages so no one faced the conditions alone.

The result? An awesome day of training, shared resilience, and the kind of bond-building that only comes from taking on a challenge together. ❄️

What a start to the season! From spring-like temps🔥to a full-on deep freeze ❄️

Race weekends 1 & 2 brought the full gambit of winter weather. Our racers, coaches and parent volunteers layered up, leaned in, and had a great time! ⛷️

Thank you to Camp Fortune Race Club, Club Mont Ste Marie, and Vorlage Competition Racing for hosting!

Meet your Coaches - Round 1: Elijah & Eric!
We asked some rapid fire questions - here’s what they had to say ⛷️

1. Powder day or groomer day?
Elijah: Powder all the way!
Eric: Ditto 🌨️

2. Early bird or night owl?
Elijah: Early bird - first chair, please 😀
Eric: Early bird, my bedtime is earlier than I'd like to admit 🛌

3. Winter Olympics or X Games?
Elijah: Winter Olympics - hockey!!! 🏒
Eric: X Games - I just can’t believe what they pull off!

4. Carving turns or hitting moguls?
Elijah: Smooth turns
Eric: Carving, no contest!

OS members keep a sharp outlook with our in-house equipment services ⛷️

This members-only service lets you drop your skis with your instructor or coach at the end of a session and have them brought back tuned and ready for your next day on snow. ❄️

Masters in Motion – Night One! 🎿

Last night we kicked off our very first Masters in Motion for alpine club parents ready to get in on the fun. The group wrapped up the evening by choosing training bib numbers and racking up times on our Brower Cloud timer.

Our Ski Instructor Professional Development Days bring our instructors and coaches together to refine technique, share ideas, and develop on-snow skills. It's just part of our commitment to our team, ensuring they are well equipped to provide great experiences for our students and racers.

We believe learning on snow never really stops. Curious about learning, teaching, or coaching with us? We’d love to hear from you!

December Mont Blanc Camp - We loved seeing returning athletes deepen their connections, new athletes join the team, and everyone enjoy getting their “snow legs” back under them. The race season can’t come soon enough! ❄️
