SSWSC hosted the Winter Start ski jumping and nordic combined competition on December 9-10, 2023, at Howelsen Hill. The competition was a huge success, and SSWSC athletes had multiple podium finishes. Jason Cobly tied the HS100 hill record with a jump of 105.5 meters (tied with Casey Larson), and Estella Hassrick beat her own HS100 record with a jump of 98.5 meters.
Congratulations to Jump Nordic Combined Program Director and Olympian Todd Wilson, who was honored with the Halstead Award for outstanding service and influence in the sport of skiing in the Rocky Mountain Division. Nominations are made for an individual who has unselfishly contributed to the ski disciplines represented by RMD.
The TeamSteam Mogul Program is off to a fantastic start, with the first mogul training venue open in the United States—thanks to the amazing work of the Howelsen Hill snowmakers and cat drivers!
