With icy conditions more suited to a World Cup slalom venue than a Big Mountain competition, SSWSC Athletes tackled the Arapahoe Basin IFSA 2* to bring home a heap of hardware on March 10-11, 2025. Starting the series on Monday in West Zuma Bowl, the icy conditions proved no hurdle for “Sending Sasha” Wodnick as she carved her way into second place in the U15 Female Ski division. Moving into the U15 Male Ski SSWSC brought in a hefty field of competitors. Through solid skiing and sweet spins Banks Ward climbed the second spot on the podium with teammate Cooper Churchley joining him in 3rd. Putting in great turns through not so great ice Cooper Lewallen skied into 6th place. Wind on Monday proved the greatest foe of the day and delayed the rest of the day’s competition to Tuesday.

Running two competitions side by side Arapahoe Basin again saw the astounding shred-ability of SSWSC athletes. In the continuation of the first day’s event the U19 female ski field saw Molly Grady slice and dice her way to 2nd followed by Teammate Zoe chase in 4th. In the U19 male ski division Ryan Montgomery blew the crowd and judges away with a massive 360 on the largest feature on venue to walk away with the win. Talon Fleischer, no stranger to speed, hooked his claws (and edges) into the snow to fly his way into 5th with Oscar Dalzell close in at 6th.

Further down the Zuma Ridge the second event was unfolding. Skai Knapp woke up the crowd with arcing turns and a launch off of the diving board to pull into 4th place while Anderson Agopian aired over the tree gap to claim 6th. In the single plank world Madden Broyles surfed through to claim the gold.
