Club Description

VASST is a club sport that serves to provide male and female students with the opportunity to ski and snowboard in either a racing or free-riding environment twice a week at the nearby Wintergreen Ski resort, as well as the opportunity to ski and snowboard competitively at various mountains across the southeast. Skiers and snowboarders can be of all ability levels. Members may simply come to participate in the winter snow sports, or they may come to train and compete as racers in the Southeast Conference of the United States Collegiate Ski and Snowboard Association. Skiers and boarders compete in Slalom, Giant Slalom, Slopestyle, Rail Jam, and Boardercross or Skiercross, respectively. Instruction and training camps are offered in an effort maintain our status as one of the top teams in the region. Team trips are sponsored to the Northeast over Winter Break for race training and freeskiing opportunties, and a trip out West for freeskiing occurs annually over Spring Break.
