Deer Valley Resort to Host First World Cup Ski Cross Competition in North America

Having worked two seasons as a ski instructor at Deer Valley, this seems like the perfect fit. DV is in tight with the U.S. Ski Team and the FIS. And I've raced down Solid Muldoon on many occasion. Almost lost my job once for buzzing the patrol director and Stein Erikson, on the same run!

Well known for hosting world-class freestyle ski events, Deer Valley Resort will welcome the Visa Freestyle International, a stop on the FIS Freestyle World Cup tour to its slopes February 1 and 2, 2008. The event will feature aerials, dual moguls and for the first time ever in North America a World Cup ski cross competition. More than 200 athletes from approximately two-dozen countries are expected to participate in the event.
