U.S. Ski & Snowboard Launches Virtual Try Out on GMTM

Pay attention to how any Winter Olympian trains in the off-season, and you’ll see the work doesn’t stop when the snow and ice melt. After months of international competition, America's winter sports athletes are subject to the same summer heat we are all experiencing. But, they still have to train everyday, and find effective ways to build and maintain the muscle memory that their sport requires.

Fortunately, with the help of the U.S. Ski & Snowboard, those premier athletes and are shown how to train away from the slopes. Their cores, legs, and about every other muscle are able to be toned and maintained through months of hot weather because of exercises developed by the best coaches over the years.

A new GMTM event, the U.S. Ski Pipeline: Digital Combine, now allows young skiers and hopeful Olympic athletes to experience a piece of that offseason training and gain attention from Olympic coaches in the process.

Check Out The U.S Ski Pipeline: Digital Combine

Through US Ski & Snowboard events on GMTM, athletes will be able to participate in activities hosted by Team USA scouts and coaches to gain exposure and be seen by the best in the sport. Through questionnaires, video uploads, and messaging to help connect athletes to coaches, young skiers will be one step closer to competing for the nation's national team alongside the best athletes at their age.

US Ski & Snowboard is America's governing body for the sport and hosts national championships and helps athletes compete internationally. US Ski & Snowboard is also responsible for naming athletes to Team USA, the nation's representatives for international skiing competitions including the Winter Olympic Games.


The USA Ski Pipeline: Digital Combine offers experienced skiers and new athletes from other sports backgrounds a step-by-step process to begin participating. Through the event page, five unique activities allow participants to showcase a variety of talents from different disciplines. Those activities include:

  • Athlete Background - Build your ATHLETE profile and share what interest you about US Ski & Snowboard.
  • Highlight Reel - Upload a highlight reel or a video of your highest sporting achievement.
  • Standing Backflip - Upload a video of your standing backflip, aerial training or trampoline work so that our team can review your submission..
  • 40 Yard Dash - Upload your 40 yard dash time below and a video recording of your sprint so that our team can review your submission.
  • Vertical Jump - Upload your vertical jump measurement below and a video recording of your jump so that our team can review your submission.

Few winter Olympic sports demand as much creativity and imagination as skiing. Skiing is a sport that needs a lot of snow and thousands of feet of elevation change, U.S. Ski & Snowboard athletes can’t take a day off when their icy ribbons of raceways melt into the rocks.

The US Ski & Snowboard website is already the best resource for young athletes hoping to find coaches, clubs, and events in their area. The partnership between GMTM and US Ski & Snowboard will supplement those offerings by allowing youth skiers to interact in real time and build a profile that organizes accomplishments, metrics, and content visible to coaches.

If you are a skier or an athlete from another sport hoping to find an opportunity with US Ski & Snowboard, create a profile now and stay tuned for new events coming to GMTM this week.
