Riley & Casey Rose

The Unofficial Pick for Monday February 13, 2012

Athlete Name: Riley James Rose and Casey Austin Rose

Freeride Program & Head Coach: Independent

We have skied with Alta/Snowbird in the past;  Steven Helfenbein was our head coach for three years.  Currently we compete with our own skills we learned from the Alta/Snowbird program and other IFSA people who have taught us over the years.  We are thankful to Steven, Rob Greener, Jim Jack, and everyone else who has coached us and made the comps so much fun.  

Jim Jack, Head IFSA Judge  "Casey and Riley Rose are an exciting pair of brothers.  They are spririted, competitive, and passionate to the game and their energy and enthusiasm is contagious to other competitors.  They are multi-talented athletes, active in a range of other sports.  Their skills and creativity shine every time they leave the start gate and each run they throw down is a display of their joy and excitement for the sport and mountains.  These two exemplify the key elements we love so much about freeskiing and are great ambassadors to the sport and their peers."
