Whether you love them or loathe them, competitions in skiing are struggling.
There are signs the whole concept of progressing a career through competition is falling apart from the bottom up.
“Who cares?”
I hear you ask and more importantly “why do you care?
You hate comps anyway”.
As that exhibition, I feel they should represent contemporary skiing.
Enter Andy Parry, opinionated and outspoken but undeniably down for the grassroots of the sport.
Two of the stops, Killington and Chestnut, will feature Tell A Friend Tour competitions.
He was typically forthcoming with his motivation when I spoke to him about the move.
Coaches, membership fees, moms in the start gate, points etc all distract from the skiing.
I want to help the next generation move forward and have fun doing it",Andy told me.
So how does the comp itself work?
Every mini-event will be different and each' comes with a marked cash prize.
It’s loose, it’s free and it actually sounds pretty fun.
