Bear Valley Race Team Alums Keely Cashman & Erik Arvidsson Return to 2023-24 U.S. Ski Team
Park City, Utah...U.S. Ski & Snowboard is proud to confirm the 55 athletes who have accepted their nomination to the Stifel U.S. Alpine Ski Team for the upcoming 2023-24 season. Two-time Olympic champion and winningest alpine skier in history Mikaela Shiffrin, 2022 Olympic silver medalist Ryan Cochran-Siegle, seven-time World Cup downhill podium finisher Breezy Johnson and top seven in the world slalom rank and 2023 world champion Paula Moltzan highlight the deep list of talented alpine athletes representing the Stifel U.S. Alpine Ski Team this season.

The 2023-24 World Cup schedule is robust, with 21 women’s World Cups and 20 men’s events officially scheduled for the FIS Alpine Ski World Cup calendar. The tour kicks off with a weekend of giant slalom in Soelden, Austria October 28-29 before heading to Zermatt/Cervinia, Switzerland/Italy for downhill races on November 8-12 for men and November 15-19 for women. Saalbach, Austria will bookend the season with World Cup Finals March 16-24, 2024.
North American fans will have the opportunity to cheer on their favorite ski racers this season with four World Cups in the United States, including the women’s slalom and giant slalom races at the Stifel Killington Cup in Killington, Vermont November 25-26 and the Xfinity Birds of Prey men’s speed events at Beaver Creek Resort in Colorado December 1-3. The World Cup returns to Europe before coming back to the U.S. in late February for back-to-back men’s tech series: Palisades Tahoe, California for the Stifel Palisades Tahoe Cup February 24-25 and Aspen, Colorado for the Stifel Aspen Winternational March 2-3. All events are recurring from the 2022-23 season, though the World Cup in Aspen transitions from being a speed series to a giant slalom and slalom.
“We are very excited to start the season in Soelden this month,” says Alpine Director Patrick Riml. “Our group of athletes across speed and tech made big strides last season and the work continued this summer. We are confident they will impress on the World Cup tour and bring home solid results for our organization and nation.”
