| 2003 Results 2nd Aspen Synchro Championships 2003 - April 7-8 In 2003, when the Diva's learned the 2003 Battle of the Ski Schools International competition in Vail had been cancelled, the team lobbied for the Aspen Ski Company to hold the event. Aspen Ski Company was most accommodating. April 7th - 8th 2003, Aspen Mountain hosted the Aspen Synchro Championships on North American. Spectators were given one fantastic show including sounds from DJ Gustavo Alder from Argentina. Spectators and competitors alike enjoyed the music and ski entertainment on a bluebird day from the deck of Bonnies Restaurant, directly at the base of the competition hill. Team Diva has enjoyed several years of competing with four Championship wins and numerous second place finishes in the women's category. It is our hope to keep this type of event alive and provide a venue for both North American and international teams to gather, party and compete.

Turkey was the first international team to attend our event as they were the first at the previous competition series.

The format was 4 passes in total, one was the mandatory school figure, two free passes and a fourth was another free pass with the elective use of a jump. Team Bachelor Gulch took FIRST place and tying for second place were ASPEN TEAM DIVA and the Telluride Ghost Riders. complete results Awards ceremonies and prize giving were hosted at the happening Aspen apres ski spot of 39 Degrees, Sky Hotel.

Our great thanks goes out to all venues, on mountain, apres and underground scenes. A special thanks to all the teams, volunteers, judges, Aspen Ski Patrol, Rich Burkley and Steve Sewell from the Aspen Ski Company, and especially Tony Fry, Freddy Ricard and our sponsors for helping us put on such a fun event for both the competitors and spectators!

First place - Beaver Creek Men's Demo team Second Place - Beaver Creek Women, Babes of Prey Third Place - Aspen Team Diva It was another weather day, but it wouldn't have been a synchro event without that. It's historic now. If you want it to snow at your resort, just plan a synchro event. Fog caused about an hour delay to start, but we managed to pull off all 4 Demos for each team and complete the event. The competition was open to all disciplines, alpine, snowboard, telemark, adaptive and combinations of any of these. We were really happy to see Vail enter a snowboard team this year after a long absence. Thanks for coming Vail Snowboard Team. We hope to see you next year as well!!! All other teams were Apline. Teams are comprised of eight members, as well as one alternate, who ski/ride together to create exciting ever-changing formations with technical precision and skill. The format was 4 passes in total, one as the mandatory school figure, two free passes and a fourth as another free pass with the elective use of a jump. This year we were short on Teams and we really missed having Team Germany and Turkey here. Team Germany backed out because of injuries and Turkey withdrew at the last minute because of a bad snow year and lack of training. We look forward to having them back next and possibly Team Germany with TWO teams!!!!!! That left all of the the teams from Colorado this Year. Vail Ski Resorts had the best showing with 5 teams entered from Vail and Beaver Creek. A team from Copper came as well as the local team, ASPEN TEAM DIVA!!!!! |
