USASA PacSun team athletes, Kelly Marren, JJ Tomlinson, Faye Gulini, and Mick Dierdorff had a great showing at X 14. This was everyone except Faye’s first X. Kelly Marren, who participated in Womens Superpipe, explains "It's cool to be a part of something that involves other extreme sports; to know that we are a part of something really big is really motivating".

 Hey everyone, Paul Brichta here checking in and giving you an update of what’s been going on.
In December I finally finished my first semester of college at the University of Minnesota. I am planning on a degree in physics and I had a 3.25 GPA my first term! After finishing school I immediately left for Colorado, my home for this winter, and started to practice in Copper’s 22 ft halfpipe. After riding there for a few days I had to pack my bags again and left for Mammoth Mountain in California for the US Snowboarding Grand Prix.

Congratulations to USASA member Ryan Breithaupt for making the top 10 list for Sports Illustrated Kid of the Year! Ryan was also featured in Boy's Life Magazine in December, way to go Ryan!
The first Slopestyle event of the season took place in Hunter Mountain’s Park Avenue terrain park. Mike Valez and his park crew (local Bozwreck crew) built a jump line that consisted of a flat box, to a medium table jump, to an option of flat box or a flat down rail or a corrugated pipe/log jam, to a large table (with a smaller option), to an even larger jump (also with a smaller option), to the NIKE 6.0 car (a multi option box feature). These six features made a wide variety of runs possible and over 75 athletes showed up in -4 degree weather.
The results are in for the 2010 Mitsubishi Lancer giveaway and the winner is Blake Ramsey from the San Gabriel Series in Southern California! Blake made a donation to the USASA, entering him in to the giveaway and he won a brand new car, how cool is that?
Hello everyone! Long time no talk. I’ve been quite busy these days. Since the Olympic year has started it has been a hectic one for everyone. I started off the season with some early season halfpipe training at Copper in the new 22ft pipe. This pipe was amazing and really allowed everyone to take their riding to new levels. I learned some new tricks and got my run dialed in time for the Copper Mtn. Grand Prix. I was very happy with my riding in the contest and landed both my runs in the qualifiers.
