Curtis Kolb came in and swept the competition this year. He podiumed in slalom at every tournament, including bringing home 3rd place in DII Nationals (only half a buoy off 2nd and a single buoy from 1st). Not only did Curtis quietly and humbly slay buoys, but he was a key member of our men’s trick team and got *pumped* about jump. Prior to September, he had never been over the ramp. While the team held their breath as we watched our top slalomer hit the ramp, Curtis casually stomped a landing on his second try ever. From there, he only got better. By Nationals not even two months later, he was kicking his way to 56 feet. Curtis was arguably our most valuable skier this year, and as a freshman in a five-year engineering program, I can only imagine the feats he’ll be pulling by the end of his collegiate ski career.
