National Pacesetting Trials 2018 with the U.S. Ski Team

NASTAR is entering its 51^st season of providing recreational public ski racing and the U.S. Ski Team sets the pace for all NASTAR races. The program is operated by U.S. Ski and Snowboard and our mission to provide alpine racers with a ranking system that allows people to complete at more than 100 resorts. We work with ski clubs, race leagues, high schools and colleges to provide a standardized racing program that allows participants to compete against their peers, family and friends regardless of when or where they race. The NASTAR handicap system provides a Par Time for each race course that is maintained by certified pacesetters. Pacesetting is the glue that holds the program together as it allows participants to earn National, State and Resort rankings while monitoring their skill development. Our goal is to bring the alpine racing community together with a common scoring system that provides entry level skiers and riders with an introduction to the sport while building a fan-base for our U.S. Ski Team athletes.
