This Team is in position to do great things.” After winning four of five events at the Sprint U.S. Snowboarding Grand Prix, White, who took the gold medal in 2006, has kept his stronghold on winning halfpipe events and will be a favorite in Vancouver. “Shaun is truly an amazing competitor. After winning in 2006 he has been non-stop and has played a huge role in the progression halfpipe has seen in these past four years,” U.S. Snowboarding Halfpipe Head Coach Mike Jankowski said. Joining White is a lineup of talented riders with unique style, including Louie Vito (Sandy, UT), who has back to back double corks in his repertoire and Scotty Lago (Seabrook, NH) who reaches mesmerizing heights with each hit in the pipe. Greg Bretz (Mammoth Lakes, CA) who has the coveted double cork in his bag as well, completes the men’s roster. Danny Davis (Detroit, MI) would have qualified for the Olympic team with a fourth in the Grand Prix standings, but suffered an injury earlier this month that will keep him out of competition. On the women’s side of things, the Olympic Team will be comprised of the same talent it featured in 2006. Clark also won four of the five Grand Prix stops to make the team, and has been using her time to lock down new tricks that she plans to add to her run as she looks for success in Vancouver. Filling out the women’s roster, Olympic silver medalist Gretchen Bleiler (Aspen, CO), Teter, and 2006 Olympian Elena Hight (South Lake Tahoe, CA) all bring the Olympic experience and heavy-hitting tricks to make the grade at Cypress Mountain. 2010 U.S. OLYMPIC SNOWBOARDING TEAM Halfpipe Men Greg Bretz, Mammoth Lakes, CA, 19, 12/19/1990 Scotty Lago, Seabrook, NH, 22, 11/12/1987 Louie Vito, Sandy, UT, 21, 3/20/1988 Shaun White, Carlsbad, CA, 23, 9/3/1986 (2006) Halfpipe Women Gretchen Bleiler, Aspen, CO, 28, 04/10/1981 (2006) Kelly Clark, Mt.

Telefest had another great year! Check out the good times in this Highlight video. Well hi there all. Figured it would be great to let you all know how Tele-Fest/Rande’-Fest 2010 went and some of the numbers from the event. Everything went really well other than we had to cancel the Ofte Lofte big air contest which was sad for me…I love jumps and it’s a big part of the history of Sondre. We had a total of 160 who officially registered for the event which does not count the reps and volunteers who just came to help. We sold 1822 is raffle tickets which means that we raised $911 for the Eugene Adaptive Ski Program(which also helps the Bend program) and the Eugene Nordic Race Program(our local high school team which is doing amazing but needs a bunch of help). Thanks to everyone who made it up to the event even though the weather outlook was less than favorable. Turned out to be a great day and everything went really really well. Already got plans for next year and looking forward to working with Heather Paul and her crew again. Put Jan. 8th and 9th, 2011 on your calendar now. Lots of fun planned Some pics from the event…   |
