Scavenger Hunt Sunday – Ski Racing Edition

Strike a Pose,
My winter fun is ski racing photography.  I love to catch these young athletes in action! Check out these little ones Jake & Tess  striking a pose.  (J6 = 7-8 year olds) Tess below won both J6 races — and for good reason — look at that form! 






Footwear
Although ski boots are tight and not always fun to get on your feet.  To get the right ones is a real advantage to how well you ski.  Schuyler is in Nordicas and doing a little boot skiing at the top of the race course with friends! 





Hobby
A hobby, a love, a passion — our family loves to ski and Schuyler has grown up in the ski world with us.  I am so incredibly proud to see him ski the course with such vigor and be so proud of his performance at the finish line.  There’s nothing better than that!








Shiny
 After coaching on Sunday I went back to my knoll to shoot some J3 (13-14 year olds) photos for their race (SVC GS) at Mount Snow – these young athletes are amazing!  This is Jean Pierre who I recognize because of his shiny goggles! 🙂  We had the opportunity to free ski with his dad, Pepe, who is the Amherst High School ski coach & a long time family friend. 









Color Me Green
Here is Harrison Ma – our friends from Clifton Park NY.  They ski out of Willard, NY and Pico VT — I have photographed him every year and was so happy that I got a few shots of him in his new green GS suit – 🙂  Last time I photographed him he was in yellow!  Looking good out there cresting the knoll Harrison!

These guys were keeping me in line so I didn’t wander too far into the course away from the B net.  They were laughing and posed for this crazy shot.  This is where the coaches and the TD stand where they can see the majority of the course.  (TD = Technical Director) 🙂
