This is the fifth installment of a seven part series in which the U.S. Ski Team’s Noah Hoffman recounts his 2010-2011 season. 1/26/2011 I’ve been very busy since my last update in Davos. The last two race weekends on the World Cup didn’t go as well as the start of the trip. I did more training in Davos than I did in Scandinavia and I was a little tired for the races. However, my teammates...
Team "Random Guys" made the paper!A few weeks ago I joined Mike Norton (my boss at the BWTC) in his super sweet 30lbs custom Clipper canoe for the 27km paddling leg of the Norman Watson Classic on the Bow River from Lake Louise to Castle Junction. I di...
Kate Kerin joins us this year as an 11th grader. She comes from Lyme, NH and has been part of the strong Ford Sayre ski program. Don't let her quiet demeanor fool you, there is a twinkle in her eye and Kate will sometimes break out her dance moves when...
SIA & NOAA say that a snowy winter is in our future! "La Nina" is certainly a friend of North American Nordic skiers. During La Nina winters, weather patterns are generally driven by a strong northerly storm track, which drops above average precipitation (ie: snowfall) with below average temperatures across the norther portion of the US. This past winter of '10 - '11, the average

On various occasions I have looked at FIS point race penalties, in a very general, roundabout way. Most recently, I looked at whether the FIS points you get in a non-World Cup race accurately reflect what you would have scored if you had raced in a World Cup race. The answer appeared to be: kind of. At [...] Related posts:
How does a high school student from Massachussetts end up skiing on a glacier with the best athletes from the United States and Canada in the middle of the summer? The answer is a program, and a promise for other young skiers. Corey Stock, a 17-year-old racer who usually represents the Cambridge Sports Union, was nominated this year to be a member of the National Training Group (NTG), a program of the U.S. Ski Team....
Here is some footage from the OD classic/run combo the last day of SMS Junior camp. Pretty cool getting 60+ out on the roads and up the mountain! I tried to get everyone but it was tough with some many up and down the roads and mountain trails! A "p...
The International Ski Federation (FIS) Doping Panel came to a final decision on Monday in Andrus Veerpalu’s case. The Estonian champion’s positive drug test from this winter, which came just before World Championships in Oslo and his abrupt retirement, still stands. His two-year ban from competition was extended to three; the end of the sentence in 2014 falls precisely on the closing ceremonies in Sochi. In February, the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) found Veerpalu to...

Check out our new Trail Directory page! Over the past 2 years (yes, that's right, we launch CyclovaXC.com over 2 years ago, in August of 2009), we've put up over 650 posts here on this website.
