NASTAR

NASTAR logo

NASTAR provides a competitive racing program through a handicap system set on a national standard that allows racers across the US to compare scores.

Racers are scored by earning a handicap that represents their ability. The handicap provides participants with a tangible number, that is the percentage they are behind the time of the National Standard or the National Pacesetter.

Today, NASTAR is owned and operated by Outside Inc. NASTAR is bringing greater awareness to the sport and value to the industry while motivating participants of all ages to get involved in alpine racing.

NASTAR is FREE for everyone with a lift ticket or pass at Crystal Ridge. Timing and registration is run out of the race shack at the bottom of Whitnall Way. All skill levels are welcome.

The Franklin Alpine Ski Team (FAST) is a Co-Op Alpine ski racing team anchored by Franklin High School that also accepts skiers from neighboring schools including Oak Creek and Greendale. Middle School students from these schools are also invited to practice with the team. We compete with the Midwest High School Ski Conference which includes 28 teams from the greater Milwaukee area. We accept novice to expert level skiers. Racing experience is not required. Practices are bi-weekly and there are six races during the competition season; three slalom events and three giant slalom events. Early season practices begin with stance, balance, and carving skills and then progress to running slalom and giant slalom courses. Focus points include racing technique, tactics, course inspection, sports psychology and most importantly, fun!
