Snowboard Cross Team kicks off NorAm season in Waterville

The SBX Team headed East to Waterville, New Hampshire, during the first week of December to kick off the training and competition season alongside the US Snowboard Team. With the Milan Cortina Games approaching, the US Team was looking for one last training opportunity at home before kicking off the World Cup season in Europe. It was a great opportunity for the SSWSC crew to get to train alongside some of the best athletes in the world - not only to watch how they operate on track, but also to pick up a few pointers from the athletes themselves. Ethan Deters got a few notes from fellow Michigander, and Olympic Gold Medalist, Nick Baumgartner, while Brady Burton got some razzing from US Team Athlete Jake Vedder for not taking better care of his boards (Burton rides one of Vedder's past race boards).
