It’s always good to have a personal connection with the Olympics, and Torino 2006 could be a special year for the State of Maine. Seth Wescott is the reigning 2005 World Boardercross Champion and has been selected to compete in that event in Torino next month. Seth Wescott is a resident of Carrabassett Valley, Maine, which is home to Sugarloaf/USA and, when off the slopes, acts just like any local Sugarloafer. We’ve always known him as an awesome snowboarder, especially in the pipe and park but his successes have begun to give him international exposure and Torino should be just another step in that career!
