Afterthought: Billy Demong, World Champion Nordic Combined skier, came to the race as part of his Smartwool sponsorship. Not only did he hand out the awards, sign posters, have his picture taken and give a great motivational talk with the kids, but he also won the race and took home a nice drawing prize. Go Billy! We'll be rooting for you to bring home some gold from the Olympics next month!!

You do need to Microsoft's Silverlight plugin to watch the video. Links may expire at some point, but for now they work. Index pages:

TUNA Classified Ads

We've rolled out a simple version of TUNA website classified ads for active members. If you've got ski-related equipment that you'd like to sell, give it a try. Here's a quick primer:

  • Posting classified ads is free! However, to post a classified ad, you must be logged into the website and must be an active member for the current season (membership runs from June 1 through June 30). Buyers don't need to be logged in and don't need to be TUNA members.
  • Classified ads are for ski and outdoor equipment only please. No tires, cars, air-conditioners, computer equipment, furniture and the like -- for that, please try ksl.com or craigslist. They're also free and work well.
  • To enter a new classified ad, log on to the site and select Create content > Classified from the navigation menu at the left. Then fill out the form following the instructions provided. When you click 'Save' your ad will appear live on the site in the Classifieds section. You can find and edit your ad later by clicking the 'My Classified' link in the left sidebar.
