Ski Racing Clinics with Brandon Dyksterhouse
Mt Hood Summer Camps for 2010
Summer ski racing camp dates for College, J1, J2 and Masters have been announced.
At 11,235 foot Mt. Hood is the only 12 month ski area in North America. With two express quad chairs and 2500′ vertical, you have the opportunity to get in a lot of quality training in a short period of time.
This is the perfect venue to demo all next year’s race stock equipment.
Canada wins gold! The streets of Vancouver go crazy.
Last week I had the incredible opportunity to witness one of the greatest Olympic celebrations in the history of the games. It just so happened that I arrived in downtown Vancouver during the celebration of the Men’s Hockey GOLD. As you can see from the video the citizens of Canada were more than exuberant for their well deserved victory. In the honor of the games this is the true meaning of sport; bringing diverse people together for a common goal.

Olympic Weight Room
Think that you have what it takes to become an Olympic Athlete? Yesterday I had the opportunity to watch some of the World’s Finest training in the Olympic Village. Take a look at the following clip to see what strength to weight ration really means. This guy has spring that would make a cat jealous!

Winter Olympics Day 5
Just when I thought it couldn’t get any better…. Mother Nature is wreaking havoc on the Olympic organizing committee while serving up a little slice of heaven for all of those interested in venturing out into the elements. This morning we were greeted with sideways rain in Whistler Village and over a foot of fresh powder at the top of Blackcomb/Whistler. Realizing that training was NOT an option, G and I suited up for a great day of free skiing. On our journey we ran into Melanie Turgeon (World Champion Gold Medalist DH), Kaylin Richardson (US Ski Team & 2010 Olympic Member), and Thomas Sykora (Ex-Austrian National Team – 9x World Cup Sl Winner).
Can’t wait to see what tomorrow has to offer!
Best Wishes,

Head RD WC GS SKI 193 “Simply the best!”
Today was my first day of GS training on my new HEAD RD WC GS Ski 193. To say that they are the best GS ski that I have ever skied on is an understatement. They offer the stability of your typical Austrian GS ski but pull radius that would make Michael Schumacher jealous. These skis are truly in a league of their own!
Gonzo meets Lindsey Vonn
On a recent GMVS training trip to Alberta, Canada I had the opportunity to introduce Lindsey Vonn to “Gonzo” Chris Gonzales. Everyone knows that Lindsey is the class-act of the women’s WC circuit on the hill, but what most people don’t know is that she is extremely generous off the hill. 45min prior to her second consecutive WC Downhill victory at Lake Louise Lindsey took the time to tell stories, sign autographs, and take pictures with our kids. Thank you Lindsey for being such a great role model. From all of us at GMVS we look forward to cheering you on to GOLD at the Olympics.
