The 2010 USSA Freestyle Junior Olympics landed at Waterville Valley, New Hampshire, drawing competitors from as far as Alyeska, Alaska to a small New England ski town for six days of competition.
It all kicked off under bluebird skies with the men’s and women’s superpipe finals. With ages ranging from seven to eighteen, the talent pool was wide, but the drive was universal. Two runs each, one chance to make the podium.
The women dropped first, laying down stylish, confident runs. In the end, it was Devin Logan (Mount Snow, VT), Hannah Haupt (Sun Valley, ID), and Jamie Crane-Mauzy (Waterville Valley, NH) taking the top three spots.
The men followed, with the energy ramping up immediately. Ty Barrymore of Sun Valley dominated, his first-hit 9 tail grab soaring a good five feet higher out of the pipe than anyone else. He topped the podium ahead of Evan Walls and Jeremie Veilleux, both from CVA.
The next day brought slopestyle finals to Waterville’s Exhibition Terrain Park, with 58 men and 21 women competing. The level of riding was just as fierce. Jamie Crane-Mauzy returned to the podium as the overall Women’s Slopestyle Champion, edging out Julia Krass and Devin Logan. On the men’s side, Andy Partridge, Nicholas Keefer, and James Campbell rounded out the top three.
Between the blue skies, the raw energy of up-and-coming skiers, and the backdrop of Waterville Valley, the 2010 Junior Olympics felt like both a proving ground and a celebration of freestyle skiing’s future.
