SVSEF Alpine U12 Travel Team Tackles Tamarack Kombi Races
The Sun Valley Ski Education (SVSEF) Alpine U12 Travel Team traveled to Tamarack, ID this weekend for the 2023 Tamarack North GS and Kombi Race. This was the last qualifier of the season before the Intermountain Division (IMD) U12 Championships, where the North and South meet in Snowbird, UT, March 17-19. SVSEF will have 22 girls and 15 boys competing at the IMD U12 Champs.
SVSEF athletes dominated the podium in both GS races and Kombi races. For the women’s GS, Savannah Pringle came in first, and Fernanda Hurtado in third. The men’s GS podium was a full-team sweep with Corbin Flood in first, Thijs Loyd in second, and Charlie Spengler in third.
“The Kombi is a true test of learning to adapt to changing environments within one course,” said Adele Savaria, SVSEF Alpine U12 Travel Team Head Coach. “The race is a mix of Giant Slalom (GS), Panel Slalom (SL), Regular Slalom (SL), and stubbies all in one course.”
The Kombi race podium on the women’s side was tackled by Savannah Pringle in second, Camille Reid in third, and Taylor Rundell in fourth. For the men, Corbin Flood came in first, Henry Questad in second, Charlie Spengler in third, and Thijs Lloyd in fifth.
“It was a great weekend at Tamarack for our team with awesome results in both races,” said Savaria. “We are very proud of all our athletes, especially being great teammates and always cheering each other on.”
