PartnerShip Announcement - Gear-Up Sports

We would like to announce GearUp Mountain Sports is returning as our RISE sponsor for this season!  In addition to supporting the Clubs' RISE initiative, GearUp is offering all LLSCs members, including parents, 15% off all ski/board services (this is better than the 10% discount we are offered as Alberta Alpine members).  Make sure to mention you're a LLSCs member when dropping off your equipment!

GearUp is the premier tuning shop in Western Canada proudly supporting the Alberta Ski Team, the Canadian National ski cross team (including Reece Howden's), the Canada Alpine Snowboard team and the Canadian National Para Snowboard team.  Our Montana machines provide top level grinding and polishing.  We have specific structures (grinds) for race, all mountain and recreational skis.

GearUp now stocks Swix wax and tools along with a selection of Sidecut Tuning tools. 

Along with our ski service we offer sports equipment rentals for all seasons.

We would like to give a special shout out to our first two RISE recipients of the season, coach Sam Ogryzlo and ski grandparent extraordinaire Joey O'Brien!

We are changing how we are recognizing our RISE athletes this season.  Rather than one athlete per club per month, coaches will be recognizing RISE moments with stickers and shout outs during daily debriefs. This will allow us to recognize many more athletes over the course of the season. At the end of the season, each group will nominate their group's RISE athlete of the year.  This athlete will be entered into the draw for new skis. Watch for our new RISE stickers to start appearing on our athletes helmets!

We'd like to give a big thank you to GearUp for our new RISE stickers, hats and toques!
