Today there was an International Free Skiing Association (IFSA) 3 star event in the North Pole region of the East Wall. Almost 100 skiers and riders turned out in rather chilly conditions to ply the chutes and cliffs of the zone. Local A-Basin ski aficionado Wade Parkinson took the men's crown with a blistering run of big airs and sweet carving turns. His grand finale was a huge back lay off a buttress near the bottom. His mother would have been so proud.
