TESTIMONIALS

ROBBY KELLEY

I had an amazing experience training with QAST. The terrain and snow conditions were perfect preparation for the World Cup season and the coaches and athletes were all awesome and a pleasure to work with! After training with QAST I had my best season ever, winning the ANC slalom title, qualifying twice on the World Cup and making the US World Championships team.

ALICE ROBINSON (World Cup Winner, Junior World Champion)

QAST is an amazing club and training environment. Not only does the world class training conditions make for unbeatable race preparation, but the awesome community involved really makes it an amazing experience. I skied with QAST for 7 years and it was truly the best start to my ski racing career that I could have asked for!

LAURIE TAYLOR

After starting with QAST when I was 13, that was when things started to click and progress. Through QAST I was able to access world class training and coaching and it was a great training environment.
