Bryce Kanowsky, Alpine IMD

[/et_pb_text][et_pb_testimonial author=”James Tautkus” job_title=”Alpine IMD Head Coach” portrait_url=”http://sunvalleyskied.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/jtcmyk_1-copy.jpg” _builder_version=”3.3.1″]Bryce is an outstanding example of where hard work can get you. He’s a great teammate, responds well to coaching, and is passionate about skiing. He never gives up and is always looking to elevate his charging hunger on the course. Above all, he’s a great guy to be around.

Abby Hobbs, Freestyle Progression

[/et_pb_text][et_pb_testimonial author=”John Grigsby” job_title=”Freestyle Head Coach” portrait_url=”http://sunvalleyskied.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/jgrigsby_staff_2020_sm.jpg” _builder_version=”3.3.1″]Abby has been working hard to improve her technical skills, both on the snow and in the Air Barn. Her dedication to becoming a better athlete has definitely shown this year – we’re really impressed with how much she’s grown and taken responsibility for herself in her training and progression.

Gerald Espinoza, Snowboard D Team

He snowboards to his own drum, and that’s what makes him unique among the kids on the D Team. He’s one of the leaders in the group, and he lets his riding do the talking.
