KMS Men's Alpine Team

Over the weekend the boys were busy running slalom at Suicide on Saturday and gs, at home, on Needles on Sunday.

Great show Saturday at a classic old Vermont slalom hill, Suicide Six. With the Middlebury ski team there in full force it was time to grab a good opportunity. The guys didn't disappoint as quite a few guys punched it into the flip for second run.

Spencer, Andrew, Julian, Jake and Kip all had reasonably good first runs. As well as Zach Stockman, skiing some of his best slalom to date.
However it's never everyone's day all at once. Andrew Kimbell came away with a solid second run and a nice result. Good job Andrew!

Sunday brought a little light snow and colder temps by afternoon. As we have been training on Needles on Thursday mornings the guys are starting to figure out that the terrain and tactics play a big role in skiing well on this hill.

Cam led the charge in 9th, 5th after first run and not far off the crew of Williams College guys. Tyler Guth in 11th, Jake in 12th and Daniel Martin in 13th.
David Schindler, with a strong second run, came in 17th and Jack and Jeffry were not far off in 28th and 32nd. Both of whom had some very good one run skiing and made some small mistakes in the other, holding them out of a top 25 result.

Good weekend Boys!
