You are invited to come throw down at the show down! Alpine Meadows will be holding their annual Telemark Freeskiing Competition in a few weeks. Come test your skillz, meet and party with your fellow telewhackers.
There are few things that can compare to the atmosphere and energy of the freeskiing comps. PW actually sprung from the Alpine Meadows Tele Comp in the early 2000’s when I met Andy Jacobsen and Andy Rosenberg. We were all living in the SLC valley and getting into filming, but it took us meeting and competing in California to bring us together. Since then we have made many friends and almost every skier we film with has come from the competition series. These comps really aren’t about who wins, but providing an arena to push yourself, improve your skills and meet others of a like mind. One of the coolest things is the support and camaraderie between competitors who are giving it there all for basically no $$ and no glory. Must be the love.
When the Andy’s and I were on the circuit there were usually 80-100 competitors. It seems like attendance has dropped off in the past few years and we don’t like to see that happen to such an important event in this small sport. PW has invited all our athlete’s to attend and try and spark some life back into one of the sport’s greatest events. If you have been toying with the idea of competing, Alp Meadows is a great venue to test it out. The terrain isn’t as rowdy and boney as Crested Butte and you don’t have to expend the coin to travel to AK. And as of right now they have a great snowpack.
