Whiteface owns a bag jump!!! It was set up for use for the first time this past Saturday (12/29). Many of the NYSEF freestyle athletes are "so stoked!" Below are a few of the videos from some of the first jumps that NYSEF athletes took.

Emma doin' a daffy
Alex tryin' out a switch take off. The wonderful thing is that a landing like this does not hurt on the bag jump!

Killington Klassic results
Hello All,
A quick update on the Mogul side of NYSEF! Six athletes descended on Killington Mtn on Sunday, the 23rd of December, and quickly made their presence felt. Brian Gardiner was the top male finisher with a 3rd place finish overall and 3rd in his age group. Kaylen Reiley was 27th overall and Camden was 30th and the two of them were 5th and 6th in their age group, respectively. Jack Deweese rounded out the mens side finishing 34th overall, and 17th in the largest age group. Jack won the launch pad award with a huge three that turned into a 410 and came back with a solid 2nd run and a big smile!
On the female side Brett Deweese laid down two solid runs and had a top ten, finishing 8th overall, and 2nd in her age group. Last but not least Brooke Deweese competed in her first ever mogul event and had top to bottom runs finishing 34th overall, and 17th in her age group. Her smile was ear to ear on the ride home so says dad! Our next event we hope to travel to Sugarbush for the Sugarslide.
Happy New Year to all of you!

Twas the Sunday before Christmas, and on every slope....
Twas the Sunday before Christmas, and on every slope,
all NYSEFers were shredding, and that is no joke.
The coaches inspired progression while catching some air,
in hopes that NYSEFers accomplish every goal that they dare.

Saranac Lake Ski Clubs that decided to try out the NYSEF program for the day.
Happy Holidays Everyone!!!

Gavin's Edit
So far our season has been way better then last year! The Whiteface park crew has come up with a few of their most creative features, they have built one amazing jump so far, they are manufacturing new rails, and they are putting in new features daily. The NYSEF Freestyle team has been loving every minute of it.
