Brantling Ski Racing GVSC Season Kickoff at Bristol Mountain — Youth Ski Racing Update

On January 11, Brantling Ski Racing headed to Bristol Mountain for the first official NYSSRA Sanctioned/GVSC race of the season, marking an exciting start to the year for our athletes.
The day began with a practice run, giving racers a chance to inspect the course and get a feel for the conditions before competition officially began. From there, athletes took on two timed runs in a Giant Slalom race that tested both skill and focus.
Conditions were very icy, making the course especially challenging. Our racers rose to the occasion, showing determination, strong technique, and resilience on a demanding GS set. We could not be prouder of how every skier represented Brantling on the hill.
We had U8, U10, and U12 racers participating, and several athletes earned top finishes:

• Robbie King – 3rd place, U10 Boys
• Benjamin Berry – 4th place, U10 Boys
• Lila Miles – 3rd place, U12 Girls

Beyond podium results, every Brantling skier put together strong runs and gained valuable race experience to build on as the season continues.
Congratulations to all of our athletes on a great start to the GVSC race season. We are excited to see this momentum carry forward into the rest of the winter.
Go Brantling! 🎿
