Led by examiner Wes Morrison, this crew brought the focus, the teamwork, and the stoke to their Level 1 Assessment at Mammoth Mountain a couple weeks ago.

Huge thanks to Evie Costello for sharing the moments — learning, celebrating, and building the next generation of snow pros.

Congrats to everyone who stepped up! 👏

    #throwback Jim shared these from a Resort Trainer #throwback Jim shared these from a Resort Trainer day with Sam Buccigrossi at Palisades Tahoe — bringing together instructors from across the region, including Jay from Sky Tavern and Adam from Kirkwood.

Great snow, great views, great community… and a little Sierra-at-Tahoe ski heart to top it off. ❤️⛷️

    Solid fundamentals. Real growth. Intro to PSIA-AA Solid fundamentals. Real growth.

Intro to PSIA-AASI Snowsports with Tim Reeve brought together members who aren’t currently working in a snowsports school — and gave them space to build confidence, clarity, and community.
@reeve4996 
Over the course of the week, participants focused on:
• Student-centered lesson delivery
• Accurate, precise demos
• Skiing and riding skill development
• Giving and receiving effective feedback

What stood out most wasn’t just skill progression — it was the willingness to step in, try, reflect, and support one another.

Strong fundamentals. Thoughtful teaching. Connected professionals.
That’s how the next generation of snow pros begins.

    Looking sharp! 🎿✨ Max Chong and Martin Gomez — fi Looking sharp! 🎿✨

Max Chong and Martin Gomez — first day back to work as certified instructors 👏

There’s something special about that first shift after earning your certification. The same uniform… but a different level of confidence. Different ownership. Different presence.

Well done, Max and Martin. 👊
