Cross Country Skiing Boot and Binding Snow Remover

Today will be Ethan Styvar‘s last individual race of this season. Future is a little unknown on which path he will go after graduating high school, but it will definitely involve racing at the next level.

today’s race is a 10k classic, his specialty. It’s gonna be fun! His classic technique is absolutely gorgeous and he has one of the best endurance engines out there at junior nationals.

Ski Vaan has been happy to sponsor, and keep sponsoring, Ethan in his journey.

I know one thing is for sure. I’m gonna be really busy today selling all my Ski Vaans. It snowed 5” of mashed potatoes last night.

The non-race days.

The Junior Nationals are 4 races over 6 days. But most people don’t realize is that there is a significant amount of downtime. It’s essential to keep your mind occupied with something other than racing, but more constructive than doom scrolling on your phone. for example, Jessie Diggins and Ben Ogden both crochet .

My sponsored skier, Ethan Styvar, got these from yours truly today! Yes, those are Mega Blocks! No, he’s not 2 years old! I asked him to make a skier; he did pretty good. Later, he tackles the Star Wars Legos!

So if you have traveling junior athletes, make sure you think about stuff like this to pack. It’s as important as underwear!

Birkie Time!

I’ll be heading out to the Junior Nationals in a couple weeks, mostly to support one of my skiers as this is his senior year in high school, Etham Styvar!

I definitely will have Ski Vaans on me. Maybe even a few King Krabbes and retro shirts as well! Check out the website and if you want anything and meet me out there, get a hold of me. I got a few DM me between March 10 and 15th if you’re out there too!

It would be nice if US production were allowed to film the XC races in Torino! Olympics has been annoying with the commercial breaks during sprint races, and cutting out feet! Ughh

Question and answer:

Q: What color is your car?
A: White (but not during ski season)

Q: What’s that thing on the side of your car holding your poles and skis?

A: Well that? That’s the King Krabbe! Perfect for people who are putting on kick wax, in a windy parking lot, or taking the family out for a ski!

Thought of the day:

We need to change the word “biathlon” to “Sniper Ski” and have the competitors in their country colors in Arctic Camo.

It’d be a lot cooler if we did!
