Just curious, how many of you guys compete in the USASA ski comps? Im in the uppermidwest ALT series and i qualified to go to nationals for slopestyle and rail jam. Hoping to meet alot of fellow NS'ers out there!
 
Was gona go but stuff happened so I can't go which I'm fine with. Idk your age group but 16-18 skiers ranking #1 in nation (I think hes still first) is my friend Matt. He's gona be up there just look for the British kid rocking skinny pants, no poles and throwing down on jumps with a white helmet. He's chill
 
Usasa is super lame but its the only ticket out to CO

nationals is a blast and is great and super organized

regionals is weak everywhere, unorganized and has 2 people competing in the whole event

I got into nationals for skiercross and that was it. for railjam i was ranked 36 and they took 36 people but with series champions ranked below the bubble of 36 they bumped me out. I have the most difficult age division besides open class; 14&up basically is open class. it sucks, the system is kinda fucked if your the series champion of a weak series such as grand canyon series, you can be nationally ranked 200th but if your the series champion of a series with terrible kids, you get invited ahead of kids who are ranked inside 36 but arent series champions,

its worth it tho for nationals because all the events in

It depends on the age division.this is nationals I'm talking about, the best of the best. For open men, guys do double 10s, 2pretz2s and flips/corks out of rails...

13-15 age group men's do cork 9s, rodeo 9s, 270 on, sw lip on, front 4s and front 630s

Kids age over 13-15 is open unless you compete in 16-18 or 19+ men's like a pussy.

Unless your in summit county, Tahoe, or Utah series the kids in those are not gonna be as good.
