My name is Matt Braley. I am from a small town in Maine called Bethel. I absolutely love snowboarding, and have been snowboarding for the past ten years. Eight of those ten years have been competitive. I race in the Unites States of America Snowboard Association (USASA). I mainly compete in racing competitions such as Snowboard Cross, Giant Slalom, and Slalom. I attend Sierra Nevada College which is a private college in Incline Village, Nevada.

First Race Pictures

These are pictures from my first race of the year in Maine. The race was a Giant Slalom and Slalom USASA race in Greenwood, Maine. The mountain we raced at is called Mt. Abram. There is about a 1,150 foot vertical drop. It is not the biggest mountain by any means, but it is a great mountain to ride at. Great, friendly, and helpful staff they can always help with whatever needs to be worked on.
In Giant Slalom I received first place in the Mens Jams category. I received the same placing in Slalom. The grooming was horrible that day because it had been too cold the night before to groom so they had to groom that morning. Or at least that was the story that all of the racers got.
