SSWSC Hosts Freestyle Moguls RQS Competition - Sydney Soard Takes Home the Win
The U13 and U15 freestyle moguls team competed in a home event at Steamboat Ski Resort on January 27 when SSWSC hosted the Rocky Mountain Freestyle Qualifier Series on Bashor.
Coach Aaron Sanford was proud of every athlete, “I can honestly say so many great things about each and every athlete who participated in this event, from taking a positive risk, taking through your fears, trying something new, or helping fellow teammates, do the same.” It was evident to anybody observing what makes TeamSteam so great last weekend at our home RQS moguls event.

The Rocky Mountain Qualifier Series (RQS) Freestyle program was created to give athletes an opportunity for a realistic competition experience in an age-appropriate scenario. The purpose of RQS is to allow athletes to continue developing their skills from the Rocky Mountain Development (Devo) Series and prepare themselves for the more competitive nature of the Competitive (Comp) Series. The RQS program is for skiers aged 11 and older (as of December 31 of the competition season) who are not competing in the Rocky Mountain Competitive Series program or the Development Series program.
