"Steamboat Springs — Jon Casson, snowboarding director for the Steamboat Springs Winter Sports Club, is hoping for sunny skies, great snow and a good vibe this week as his program prepares to host a pair of NorAm Race to the Cup events at Howelsen Hill.
“Hopefully, we will get a big local crowd to come out and cheer these racers on,” Casson said Wednesday. “This is always an exciting event.”
The Alpine snowboarding races will open Friday afternoon with the qualifying rounds for the parallel giant slalom beginning at 2:30 p.m. The top riders will advance to the finals, which are expected to begin under the lights at 5:30 p.m.
Racing will resume at 11 a.m. Saturday with the parallel slalom. The finals are set to start at 1 p.m. Those races also will be held at Howelsen Hill...."
