The eastern team is about to wrap up a two week stay out in Park City where we have been training and competing in the 15th annual Springer Tournee. Lots of good jumps, bad jumps, some crashes, roller skiing, movies, and even freestyle skiing into the pool.
As most of you might have heard that Beckett Ledger had a crash out here and broke his femur but is recovering well now back in LP and should be ready to go for the winter season.
Trent, Karl, Landon, Matt, Beckett and Gabby all had some highlights on this trip with even some of the team coming home with new Personal Distance Records in training and also some quality rides in competition.
Full results of every hill and event can be found here.

The highlight I must say was on the k90 and k120 as we got to see the older Eastern athletes who are now on our women's and men's national team dominate the podium over the weekend. Nick Fairall of Andover NH won both the k90 and k120 events and we saw Nick Alexander and Chris Lamb join him on the k120 podium to make it an Eastern sweep.
Miles Lussi who was named to the Devo team this summer won the junior class with ease on the k90 and showed some solid jumps on the k120 with the big boys.
So after a busy action packed 2 weeks in PC we will be traveling home to train and get ready for our next adventure to Norge ski club in October and then getting ready for Lake Placid to host the normal hill national championships for special jumping and Nordic combined!!
