Angus Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago I have lots of opinions about LV but I don't fault her. She skied just fine a few days earlier. Her line was too high, she got caught in the gate, got twisted around and blown up. She had plenty of medical advice & care. They need to get medical clearance but there is definitely a tension there between medical staff and skiers. I've skied a bunch of these WC and Olympic DH courses- making many, many turns - they are all insane when you consider the skiers are basically straight lining. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn’t appear the ACL thing caused her crash. She caught a gate wrong. She earned that spot. I am not wired like her at all so I can’t comprehend it. Takes guts and some hubris I suppose. im just happy to make it down the trails. I finally got my first turns in last night. Been battling a nagging knee things since July. Actually feels pretty good today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GCWarrior Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago The Beast pass getting better by the yearSee what they do next year. Burke and Smuggs ownership is a bit different than Beast and Catamount. Bousquet is also in the Berkshire summit pass mix and they aren’t owned by either. Could see a nice partner program or some tiered options with full access at a premium. . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She earned her spot on the team and was skiing well in the practice runs. Sucks that she caught that gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
